Ralph Waldo Emerson Quote

Art is the most intense mode of individualism that the world has known

I count life just a stuff to try the soul's strength on

Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict

When the fight begins within himself, a man's worth something

If the fool would persist in his folly he would become wise

If merely 'feeling good' could decide, drunkenness would be the supremely valid human experience.
