"All the thoughts of a turtle are..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Nature is methodical, and doeth her work well. Time is never to be hurried.”

“A painter told me that nobody could draw a tree without in some sort becoming a tree.”

“Beauty is an outward gift, which is seldom despised, except by those to whom it has been refused.”

“We view things not only from different sides, but with different eyes; we have no wish to find them alike.”

“The incessant anxiety and strain of some is a well-nigh incurable form of disease. We are made to exaggerate the importance of what we do; and yet how much is not done by us!”

“Too much beauty, I reckon, is nothing but too much sun.”

“Mine honour is my life; both grow in one; Take honour from me, and my life is done.”

“You've got to be really dialed into exactly who you are to the one hundredth power or you're just everyone else.”

“Life isn't about finding yourself; it's about creating yourself. So live the life you imagined.”
