Love not the flower they pluck and know it not, And all their botany is Latin names.
Ralph Waldo EmersonTrust men and they will be true to you; treat them greatly and they will show themselves great.
Ralph Waldo EmersonIt is a mischievous notion that we are come late into nature; that the world was finished a long time ago. As the world was plastic and fluid in the hands of God, so it is ever to so much of his attributes as we bring to it. To ignorance and sin, it is flint. They adapt to themselves to it as they may; but in proportion as a man has anything in him divine, the firmament flows before him and takes his signet and form.
