"Great geniuses have the shortest biographies...." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Doing well is the result of doing good. That's what capitalism is all about.”

“For he that feeds men serveth few;He serves all who dares be true.”

“Thefts never enrich; alms never impoverish; murder will speak out of stone walls. The least admixture of a lie-for example, the taint of vanity, the least attempt to make a good impression, a favorable appearance-will instantly vitiate the effect.”

“I put all my genius into my life; I put only my talent into my works.”

“All geniuses die young.”

“Nature is mythical and mystical always, and works with the license and extravagance of genius. She has her luxurious and florid style as well as art.”

“All the great things are simple.”

“He is not great who is not greatly good.”

“History - a biography of a few stout and earnest persons”
