Pictures must not be too picturesque. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Pictures must not be too picturesque."
"Pictures must not be too picturesque."
"Always do what you are afraid to do."
"A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends."
"The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well."
"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."
"Make your own Bible. Select and collect all the words and sentences that in all your readings have been to you like the blast of a trumpet."
