More quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson

"To finish the moment, to find the journey's end in every step of the road, to live the greatest number of good hours, is wisdom."
"Tis the good reader that makes the good book; in every book he finds passages which seem confidences or asides hidden from all else and unmistakenly meant for his ear; the profit of books is according to the sensibility of the reader; the profoundest thought or passion sleeps as in a mine, until it is discovered by an equal mind and heart."
"All mankind love a lover."
"Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood."
"All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better."
