What is a farm but a mute gospel?
From Ralph Waldo Emerson
As we are, so we associate. The good, by affinity, seek the good; the vile, by affinity, the vile. Thus of their own volition, souls proceed into Heaven, into Hell.
Nothing astonishes men so much as common sense and plain dealing.
A man is the whole encyclopedia of facts.
I hate the giving of the hand unless the whole man accompanies it.
Every natural fact is a symbol of some spiritual fact.
Everything in Nature contains all the powers of Nature. Everything is made of one hidden stuff.
It is said that the world is in a state of bankruptcy, that the world owes the world more than the world can pay.
If the tongue had not been framed for articulation, man would still be a beast in the forest.
Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.
