The whole constitution of property on its present tenures, is injurious, and its influence on persons deteriorating and degrading (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Intellectual tasting of life will not supersede muscular activity. If a man should consider the nicety of the passage of a piece of bread down his throat, he would starve (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
We hear eagerly every thought and word quoted from an intellectual man. But in his presence our own mind is roused to activity, and we forget very fast what he says (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)

When the literary class betray a destitution of faith, it is not strange that society should be disheartened and sensualized by unbelief (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The intellectual life may be kept clean and healthful, if man will live the life of nature, and not import into his mind difficulties which are none of his (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The scholar is that man who must take up into himself all the ability of the time, all the contributions of the past, all the hopes of the future. He must be an university of knowledges (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Action is with the scholar subordinate, but it is essential. Without it, he is not yet man. Without it, thought can never ripen into truth (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The learned and the studious of thought have no monopoly of wisdom. Their violence of direction in some degree disqualifies them to think truly (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The human heart concerns us more than the poring into microscopes, and is larger than can be measured by the pompous figures of the astronomer (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
It is the last lesson of modern science, that the highest simplicity of structure is produced, not by few elements, but by the highest complexity (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Nothing is dead: men feign themselves dead, and endure mock funerals and mournful obituaries, and there they stand looking out ofthe window, sound and well, in some new and strange disguise (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
It is the same among the men and women, as among the silent trees; always a referred existence, an absence, never a presence and satisfaction. Is it, that beauty can never be grasped? In persons and in landscape is equally inaccessible? (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
There is a tendency in things to right themselves, and the war or revolution or bankruptcy that shatters rotten system, allows things to take a new and natural order (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The modernness of all good books seems to give men an existence as wide as man (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The customer is the immediate jewel of our souls. Him we flatter, him we feast, compliment, vote for, and will not contradict (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The best political economy is the care and culture of men; for, in these crises, all are ruined except such as are proper individuals, capable of thought, and of new choice and the application of their talent to new labor (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Then climate is a great impediment to idle persons; we often resolve to give up the care of the weather, but still we regard the clouds and the rain (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
No man ever came to an experience which was satiating, but his good is tidings of a better. Onward and onward! (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Because the soul is progressive, it never quite repeats itself, but in every act attempts the production of a new and fairer whole (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
We must learn the language of facts. The most wonderful inspirations die with their subject, if he has no hand to paint them to the senses (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Great genial power, one would almost say, consists in not being original at all; in being altogether receptive; in letting the world do all, and suffering the spirit of the hour to pass unobstructed through the mind (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Creative force, like a musical composer, goes on unweariedly repeating a simple air or theme, now high, now low, in solo, in chorus, ten thousand times reverberated, till it fills earth and heaven with the chant (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Lovers should guard their strangeness. If they forgive too much, all slides into confusion and meanness (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The plays of children are nonsense, but very educative nonsense. So it is with the largest and solemnest things, with commerce, government, church, marriage, and so with the history of every man’s bread, and the ways by which he is to come by it (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
If a man lose his balance, and immerse himself in any trades or pleasures for their own sake, he may be a good wheel or pin, but he is not a cultivated man (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
