"The task ahead of us is never..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“He cannot be happy and strong until he too lives with nature in the present, above time.”

“Men who know the same things are not long the best company for each other.”

“Never self-possessed, or prudent, love is all abandonment.”

“No man is defeated without until he has first been defeated within.”

“When the sovereign spirit within us is true to nature, it stands poised and ready to adjust to every change in circumstances and to seize each new opportunity. It doesn't approach an object with prejudice or preconception, but handles each thing dispassionately before embracing it and, if necessary, finds advantage in what opposes it. It is like fire in this regard. Whereas a feeble flame might suffocate under a pile of dry sticks, a robust fire consumes everything it touches. The more objects of any kind heaped on it, the higher it rises, the hotter it burns.”

“There is a treasure in the heart of every man if you can only find it”

“When there is hope in the future, there is power in the present, and since hope is the foundational quality of all change, there is considerable reason to be excited.”

“I am a most unhappy man. I accidentally ruined my country. A great industrial nation is now controlled by its system of credit. Our government is no longer based on the freedom of opinion, nor on the conviction and the majority decision, it is now a government which is subjected to the conviction and the compulsion of a small group of dominant men.”

“The Constitution is a mere thing of wax in the hands of the judiciary, which they may twist and shape into any form they please.”
