"The end of the human race will..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Be not the slave of your own past - plunge into the sublime seas, dive deep, and swim far.”

“Fear is cruel and mean. The political reigns of terror have been reigns of madness and malignity,--a total perversion of opinion;society is upside down, and its best men are thought too bad to live.”

“Obedience alone gives the right to command.”

“Marriage is the beginning and pinnacle of civilization.”

“Civilization is not an incurable disease, but it should never be forgotten that the English people are at present afflicted by it.”

“Society cannot do without cultivated men. As soon as the first wants are satisfied, the higher wants become imperative.”

“I must try, however, as best I can, although I am very conscious of the fact that our feelings and strivings are often contradictory and obscure and that they cannot be expressed in easy and simple formulas.”

“Basically, therefore, we should approach others openly, recognizing each person as another human being just like ourselves. There is not much difference between us all.”

“The more I see of Mankind, the more I prefer my dog.”
