No one has a prosperity so high and firm that two or three words can’t dishearten it (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Shallow men believe in luck, believe in circumstances: it was somebody’s name, or he happened to be there at right time, or it was so then, and another day it would have been otherwise. Strong men believe in cause and effect (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Talent finds its models, methods, and ends in society, exists for exhibition, and goes to the soul only for power to work. Genius is its own end, and draws its means and the style of its architecture from within (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The good lawyer is not the man who has an eye to every side and angle of contingency, and qualifies all his qualifications, but who throws himself on your part so heartily, that he can get you out of a scrape (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The machine unmakes the man. Now that the machine is so perfect, the engineer is nobody (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The cannon will not suffer any other sound to be heard for miles and for years around it (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The craft of the merchant is this bringing a thing where it abounds to where it is costly (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
There is something servile in the habit of seeking after a law which we must obey (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The virtues of society are vices of the saint. The terror of reform is the discovery that we must cast away our virtues, or what we have always esteemed such, into the same pit that has consumed our grosser vices (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The mind does not create what it perceives, any more than the eye creates the rose (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The worst of charity is that the lives you are asked to preserve are not worth preserving (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Those who live to the future must always appear selfish to those who live to the present (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
We must hold a man amenable to reason for the choice of his daily craft or profession. It is not an excuse any longer for his deeds that they are the custom of his trade. What business has he with an evil trade? (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
We must set up a strong present tense against all rumors of wrath, past and to come (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
What your heart thinks is great, is great. The soul’s emphasis is always right (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
When a resolute young fellow steps up to the great bully, the world, and takes him boldly by the beard, he is often surprised to find it comes off in his hand, and that it was only tied on to scare away the timid adventurers (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Wisdom is like electricity. There is no permanently wise man, but men capable of wisdom, who, being put into certain company, or other favorable conditions, become wise for a short time, as glasses rubbed acquire electric power for a while (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
What school, college, or lecture bring men depends on what men bring to carry it home in (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Work and thou canst escape the reward; whether the work be fine or course, planting corn or writing epics, so only it be honest work, done to thine own approbation, it shall earn a reward to the senses as well as to the thought (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to leave the world a better place, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived, this is to have succeeded (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
All great masters are chiefly distinguished by the power of adding a second, a third, and perhaps a fourth step in a continuous line. Many a man has taken the first step. With every additional step you enhance immensely the value of your first (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Books are the best of things if well used; if abused, among the worst. They are good for nothing but to inspire. I had better never see a book than be warped by its attraction clean out of my own orbit, and made a satellite instead of a system (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
He that can heroically endure adversity will bear prosperity with equal greatest of the soul; for the mind that cannot be dejected by the former is not likely to be transported without the latter (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Evil is merely privative, not absolute: it is like cold, which is the privation of beat (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Religion must always be a crab fruit; it cannot be grafted, and keep its wild beauty (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
Steam is no stronger now than it was a hundred years ago, but it is put to better use (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
I grieve that grief can teach me nothing, nor carry me one step into real nature (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
There is no teaching until the pupil is brought into the same state or principle in which you are; a transfusion takes place; he is you, and you are he; then is a teaching; and by no unfriendly chance or bad company can he ever lose the benefit (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
The sign and credentials of the poet are that he announces that which no man foretold (Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes)
