Ralph Waldo Emerson

A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him I may think aloud...

We boil at different degrees.

For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.

Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.

Hitch your wagon to a star.

Knowledge is a city, to the building of which every human being brought a stone.

Good is a good doctor, but Bad is sometimes a better.

Money often costs too much.

All men are poets at heart.

Knowledge is the antidote of fear.

I cannot remember the books I've read any more than the meals I have eaten; even so, they have made me.

If you put a chain around the neck of a slave, the other end fastens itself around your own.

Fear always springs from ignorance.

Never read any book that is not a year old.
