"Happy will that house be in which..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“The subject is said to have the property of making dull men eloquent.”

“Every man is eloquent once in his life.”

“But if a man would be alone, let him look at the stars. The rays that come from those heavenly worlds, will separate between him and vulgar things.”

“Though she be but little, she is fierce!”

“People grow through experience if they meet life honestly and courageously. This is how character is built.”

“Character may almost be called the most effective means of persuasion.”

“Love others as you would love yourself, judge others as you would judge yourself, cherish others as you would cherish yourself. When you wish for others as you wish for yourself and when you protect others as you would protect yourself, that's when you can say it's true love.”

“Dennis Thatcher, husband of Margaret Thatcher, when asked who wore the pants in his house, said "I do, and I also wash and iron them." I only like two kinds of men; domestic and foreign.”

“It is more difficult for a man to be faithful to his mistress when he is favored than when he is ill treated by her.”
