Other Quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson

How much of human life is lost in waiting. Ralph Waldo Emerson

I want wood, or oil, or meal, or salt; the house smokes, or i have a headache; then the tax; and an affair to be transacted with a man without heart or brains; and the stinging recollection of an injurious or very awkward word,--these eat up the hours. Ralph Waldo Emerson
What school, college, or lecture bring men depends on what men bring to carry it home in. Ralph Waldo Emerson

Men love to wonder, and that is the seed of our science, and such is the mechanical determination of our age, and so recent are our best contrivances, that use has not dulled our joy and pride in them. These arts open great gates of a future, promising to make the world plastic and to lift human life out of its beggary to a godlike ease and power. Ralph Waldo Emerson
God knows that all sorts of gentlemen knock at the door; but whenever used in strictness and with any emphasis, the name will be found to point at original energy. Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you love and serve man, you cannot, by any hiding or stratagem, escape remuneration. Ralph Waldo Emerson
The worthless and offensive members of society, whose existence is a social pest, invariably think themselves the most ill-used people alive, and never get over their astonishment at the ingratitude and selfishness of their contemporaries. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Better be a nettle in the side of your friend than his echo. Ralph Waldo Emerson
