"The order of things consents to virtue...." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“And yet--it is not beauty that inspires the deepest passion. Beauty without grace is the hook without the bait. Beauty, without expression, tires.”

“A friend may be nature's most magnificent creation.”

“The ragged cliff has thousand faces in a thousand hours.”

“Perhaps to be able to learn things quickly isn't everything. To be kind is worth a great deal to other people...Lots of clever people have done harm and have been wicked.”

“Virtue may not always make a Face handsome, but Vice will certainly make it ugly.”

“Noble deeds that are concealed are most esteemed.”

“The entire most beautiful order of things that are very good, when their measures have been accomplished, is to pass away.”

“Ideally a book would have no order to it, and the reader would have to discover his own.”

“The power that keeps cities of men together Is noble preservation of law.”
