Use what language you will, you can never say anything but what you are.
From Ralph Waldo Emerson
One must be an inventor to read well. There is then creative reading as well as creative writing.
We are wiser than we know.
A great man is always willing to be little.
It was high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, 'always do what you are afraid to do.'
Life consists in what a man is thinking of all day.
A chief event of life is the day in which we have encountered a mind that startled us.
No man ever prayed heartily without learning something.
Every man supposes himself not to be fully understood or appreciated.
This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it.
