"Greatness is a property for which no..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“In politics and in trade, bruisers and pirates are of better promise than talkers and clerks.”

“Literature is the effort of man to indemnify himself for the wrongs of his condition.”

“Happy the man who never puts on a face, but receives every visitor with that countenance he has on.”

“Just do what must be done. This may not be happiness, but it is greatness.”

“The whole world says that my Way is great like nothing else. It is great because it is like nothing else. If it were like everything else, it would long ago have become insignificant.”

“great people are those who make others feel that they, too, can become great.”

“They will only care when you're gone.”

“The nicest feeling in the world is to do a good deed anonymously-and have somebody find out.”

“I was saluted by Alex Ferguson when I was subbed and that made me very happy.”
