The moment the doctrine of the immortality is separately taught, man is already fallen. In the flowing of love, in the adoration of humility, there is no question of continuance. No inspired man ever asks this question, or condescends to these evidences. For the soul is true to itself, and the man in whom it is shed abroad cannot wander from the present, which is infinite, to a future which would be finite.
Ralph Waldo EmersonTo accomplish excellence or anything outstanding, you must listen to that whisper which is heard by you alone.
Ralph Waldo EmersonThe relations of the soul to the divine spirit are so pure, that it is profane to seek to interpose helps.
