"The longer we live the more we..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“But what is classification but the perceiving that these objects are not chaotic, and are not foreign, but have a law which is also the law of the human mind?”

“The writer is an explorer. Every step is an advance into a new land.”

“A great teacher makes hard things easy.”

“The saddest life is that of a political aspirant under democracy. His failure is ignominious and his success is disgraceful.”

“Character develops itself in the stream of life.”

“My life will be the best illustration of all my work.”

“It is not a question of patronizing philanthropy towards disabled people. They do not need the patronage of the non-disabled. It is not for them to adapt to the dominant and dominating world of the so-called non-disabled. It is for us to adapt our understanding of a common humanity; to learn of the richness of how human life is diverse; to recognize the presence of disability in our human midst as an enrichment of our diversity.”

“Man should not be in the service of society, society should be in the service of man. When man is in the service of society, you have a monster state, and that's what is threatening the world at this minute.”

“What is commonly called friendship is only a little more honor among rogues.”
