More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Truth is handsomer than the affectation of love. Your goodness must have some edge to it--else it is none."
"What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say."
"Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them."
"Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, Faith looks up"
"Men love to wonder, and that is the seed of science."
