More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us."
"Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."
"Books are for nothing but to inspire"
"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."
"That which we persist in doing becomes easier to do, not that the nature of the thing has changed but that our power to do has increased."
