We ascribe beauty to that whi...

We ascribe beauty to that which is simple; which has no superfluous parts; which exactly answers its end; which stands related to all things; which is the mean of many extremes.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Sleep is not, death is not; W...

Sleep is not, death is not; Who seem to die Live. House you were born in, Friends of your spring-time, old man and young maid, Day's toil and it's guerdon, They are all vanishing, Fleeing to fables, Cannot be moored

Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. No man has learned anything rightly, until he knows that every day is Doomsday.

Noblesse oblige; or, superior advantages bind you to larger generosity.

The virtue of books is to be readable.

Infancy is the perpetual Mess...

Infancy is the perpetual Messiah, which comes into the arms of fallen men, and pleads with them to return to paradise.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

No rent-roll nor army-list ca...

No rent-roll nor army-list can dignify skulking and dissimulation: and the first point of courtesy must always be truth, as really all the forms of good-breeding point that way.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A little fact is worth a whol...

A little fact is worth a whole limbo of dreams.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

If you visit your friend, why...

If you visit your friend, why need you apologize for not having visited him, and waste his time and deface your own act? Visit him now.

More than the diamond Koh-i-noor, which glitters among their crown jewels, they prize the dull pebble which is wiser than a man, whose poles turn themselves to the poles of the world, and whose axis is parallel to the axis of the world. Now, their toys are steam and galvanism.

In Nature, all is useful, all is beautiful

The way to learn German, is, to read the same dozen pages over and over a hundred times, till you know every word and particle in them, and can pronounce and repeat them by heart.

It requires a great deal of boldness and a great deal of caution to make a great fortune, and when you have it, it requires ten times as much skill to keep it.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Our religion vulgarly stands ...

Our religion vulgarly stands on numbers of believers. Whenever the appeal is made--no matter how indirectly--to numbers, proclamation is then and there made, that religion is not. He that finds God a sweet, enveloping presence, who shall dare to come in?

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Therefore is nature ever the ...

Therefore is nature ever the ally of Religion: lends her all her pomp and riches to the religious sentiment.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The great make its feel, firs...

The great make its feel, first of all, the indifference of circumstances. They call into activity the higher perceptions, and subdue the low habits of comfort and luxury; but the higher perceptions find their objects everywhere; only the low habits need palaces and banquets.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Conservatism, ever more timor...

Conservatism, ever more timorous and narrow, disgusts the children, and drives them for a mouthful of fresh air into radicalism.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

To me, however, the question ...

To me, however, the question of the times resolved itself into a practical question of the conduct of life. How shall I live? We are incompetent to solve the times. Our geometry cannot span the huge orbits of the prevailing ideas, behold their return, and reconcile their opposition. We can only obey our own polarity.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

We have a great deal more kindness than is ever spoken.

Happy is the house that shelters a friend.
