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

“If we encounter a man of rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads.”

“Whatever games are played with us, we must play no games with ourselves, but deal in our privacy with the last honesty and truth.”

“There is one other reason for dressing well, namely that dogs respect it, and will not attack you in good clothes.”

“Imagination is not a talent of some men but is the health of every man.”

“It is only when the mind and character slumber that the dress can be seen.”

“Religion is the perception of that power which constructs the greatness of the centuries out of the paltriness of the hours.”

“Thing were falling apart. We just could not slow down. We were evolving into something greater, perhaps too much for our own good. And one thing always remained as I moved on. I saved a little bit of love just in case you would ever return home.”

“I surrendered my identity in your eyes.”

“Nobody the dead man & Nobody the living”

“I am quite sure that poetry will live long with our generations to come.”

“She was broken from moment to moment, watching her world collide she felt lost inside herself. She fell apart for a passion that flamed beneath her. She waited and died a hundred times, it dripped from her pores. The moment she let go, she soared over the stillness like the star she was born to be.”

“She seems so cool, so focused, so quiet, yet her eyes remain fixed upon the horizon. You think you know all there is to know about her immediately upon meeting her, but everything you think you know is wrong. Passion flows through her like a river of blood.”
