"Genius is its own end...." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“We are symbols, and inhabit symbols.”

“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; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”

“Cut these words and they would bleed; they are vascular and alive.”

“Invention is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration.”

“This is one of those instances in which the individual genius is found to consent, as indeed it always does, at last, with the universal.”

“Genius is intellect constructive.”

“The important thing is to create. Nothing else matters; creation is all.”

“All the breaks you need in life wait within your imagination, Imagination is the workshop of your mind, capable of turning mind energy into accomplishment and wealth.”

“The drive toward the formation of metaphors is the fundamental human drive, which one cannot for a single instant dispense with in thought , for one would thereby dispense with man himself.”
