Ralph Waldo Emerson quotes

Every hero becomes a bore at last.

I hate quotations. Tell me what you know.

Truth is beautiful, without doubt; but so are lies.

The end of the human race will be that it will eventually die of civilization.

Children are all foreigners.

Whoso would be a man must be a nonconformist.

The louder he talked of his honor, the faster we counted our spoons.

Wit makes its own welcome, and levels all distinctions. No dignity, no learning, no force of character, can make any stand against good wit.

Beware when the great God lets loose a thinker on this planet.

A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines.
