"The sower may mistake and sow his..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Nature avenges herself speedily on the hard pedantry that would chain her waves. She is no literalist. Every thing must be taken genially, and we must be at the top of our condition, to understand any thing rightly.”

“Every man who would do anything well, must come to it from a higher ground.”

“The wise know that foolish legislation is a rope of sand, which perishes in the twisting.”

“Nature does require her times of preservation.”

“When I am alone I can become invisible. I can sit on the top of a dune as motionless as an uprise of weeds, until the foxes run by unconcerned. I can hear the almost unhearable sound of the roses singing.”

“Nature creates few men brave, industry and training makes many.”

“I wish my countrymen to consider that whatever the human law may be, neither an individual nor a nation can ever commit the leastact of injustice against the obscurest individual without having to pay the penalty for it. A government which deliberately enacts injustice, and persists in it, will at length even become the laughing-stock of the world.”

“The love that you withhold is the pain that you carry.”

“Always pay; for first or last you must pay your entire debt.”
