"Sugar is not so sweet to the..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“What's a book? Everything or nothing. The eye that sees it all.”

“A man's growth is seen in the successive choirs of his friends.”

“Ennui shortens life, and bereaves the day of its light.”

“By going out of your mind, you come to your senses”

“Life is comic or pitiful as soon as the high ends of being fade out of sight, and man becomes near-sighted, and can only attend towhat addresses the senses.”

“The light dove, in free flight cutting through the air the resistance of which it feels, could get the idea that it could do even better in airless space. Likewise, Plato abandoned the world of the senses because it posed so many hindrances for the understanding, and dared to go beyond it on the wings of the ideas, in the empty space of pure understanding.”

“Good taste comes more from the judgment than from the mind.”

“All problems are illusions of the mind.”

“It takes great deal of courage to see the world in all its tainted glory, and still to love it.”
