"The world is his who can see..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“He is the rich man in whom the people are rich, and he is the poor man in whom the people are poor; and how to give access to themasterpieces of art and nature, is the problem of civilization.”

“Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not.”

“When life has been well spent, age is a loss of what it can well spare,--muscular strength, organic instincts, gross bulk, and works that belong to these. But the central wisdom, which was old in infancy, is young in fourscore years, and dropping off obstructions, leaves in happy subjects the mind purified and wise.”

“this woman is a genius in the day time and a beauty at night”

“The true neighbor will risk his position, his prestige, and even his life for the welfare of others.”

“Great minds are related to the brief span of time during which they live as great buildings are to a little square in which they stand: you cannot see them in all their magnitude because you are standing too close to them.”

“True knowledge comes with deep understanding of a topic and its inner workings.”

“Was wirklich zählt, ist Intuition”

“The inability to lie is far from the love of truth.”
