A determined man, by his very attitude and the tone of his voice, puts a stop to defeat, and begins to conquer.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

In every man there is something wherein I may learn of him, and in that I am his pupil.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

If you believe in the soul, do not clutch at sensual sweetness before it is ripe on the slow tree of cause and effect.

Activity is contagious.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The true test of civilization...

The true test of civilization is not the census, nor the size of cities, nor the crops - no, but the kind of man the country turns out.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There is a time in every man'...

There is a time in every man's education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The men who carry their point...

The men who carry their points do not need to inquire of their constituents what they should say, but are themselves the country which they represent: nowhere are its emotions or opinions so instant and so true as in them; nowhere so pure from a selfish infusion.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

He is only rich who owns the day. There is no king, rich man, fairy, or demon who possesses such power as that.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Wherever a man commits a crime, God finds a witness. Every secret crime has its reporter.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

...most men have bound their ...

...most men have bound their eyes with one or another handkerchief, and attached themselves to some one of these communities of opinion. This conformity makes them not false in a few particulars, authors of a few lies, but false in all particulars. Their every truth is not quite true. Their two is not the real two, their four not the real four; so that every word they say chagrins us, and we know not where to begin to set them right.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Manners are the happy ways of doing things; each once a stroke of genius or of love, now repeated and hardened into usage.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

I see the spectacle of mornin...

I see the spectacle of morning from the hilltop over against my house, from daybreak to sunrise, with emotions which an angel might share. The long slender bars of cloud float like fishes in the sea of crimson light. From the earth, as a shore, I look out into that silent sea. I seem to partake its rapid transformations; the active enchantment reaches my dust, and I dilate and conspire with the morning wind.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

How much we forgive to those ...

How much we forgive to those who yield us the rare spectacle of heroic manners! We will pardon them the want of books, or arts, and even of gentler virtues. How tenaciously we remember them!

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

I am old, yet I look at wise ...

I am old, yet I look at wise men and see that I am very young. I look over those stars yonder, and into the myriads of the aspirant and ordered souls, and see I am a stranger and a youth and have yet my spurs to win. Too ridiculous are these airs of age.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

The best of life is conversat...

The best of life is conversation, and the greatest success is confidence, or perfect understanding between sincere people.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There are moods in which we court suffering, in the hope that here, at least, we shall find reality, sharp peaks and edges of truth. But it turns out to be scene-painting and counterfeit. The only thing grief has taught me is to know how shallow it is.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

Our housekeeping is mendicant...

Our housekeeping is mendicant, our arts, our occupations, our marriages, our religion we have not chosen but society has chosen for us.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There is nothing capricious in nature and the implanting of a desire indicates that its gratification is in the constitution of the creature that feel it.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A man is a little thing whils...

A man is a little thing whilst he works by and for himself, but, when he gives voice to the rules of love and justice, is godlike, his word is current in all countries; and all men, though his enemies, are made his friends and obey it as their own.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

A skilful man reads his dream...

A skilful man reads his dreams for his selfknowledge; yet not the details, but the quality.
