Truth Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“The sky is the daily bread of the eyes.”

“A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.”

“The world thus exists to the soul to satisfy the desire of beauty. This element I call an ultimate end. No reason can be asked or given why the soul seeks beauty. Beauty, in its largest and profoundest sense, is one expression for the universe. God is the all-fair. Truth, and goodness, and beauty, are but different faces of the same All. But beauty in nature is not ultimate. It is the herald of inward and eternal beauty, and is not alone a solid and satisfactory good. It must stand as a part, and not as yet the last or highest expression of the final cause of Nature.”

“He who is in love is wise and is becoming wiser, sees newly every time he looks at the object beloved, drawing from it with his eyes and his mind those virtues which it possesses.”

“Everybody we know surrounds himself with a fine house, fine books, conservatory, gardens, equipage, and all manner of toys, as screens to interpose between himself and his guest. Does it not seem as if man was of a very sly, elusive nature, and dreaded nothing so much as a full rencontre front to front with his fellow?”

“For your information, Dolores, Rudi gave me full leave to do what I think is best for our children.”

“Out of nowhere, one of the twins grabbed my cap while the other delivered a blow to my head. She slapped the taste right out of my mouth. I couldn’t even feel my tongue. I spun around to face my bullies. The twins had become triplets. I couldn’t remember ever trying to drink three glasses of anything and this wouldn’t be the day to try.”

“To love is to think.”

“If you can feel the future, then you are about to experience it.”

“Sometimes before your luck can be good,someone else's has to be bad”

“The right to search for the truth implies also a duty; one must not conceal any part of what one has recognized to be the truth.”
