Ralph Waldo EmersonBut in every constitution some large degree of animal vigor is necessary as material foundation for the higher qualities of the art.
Ralph Waldo EmersonDo not be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. What if they are a little coarse and you may get your coat soiled or torn? What if you do fail, and get fairly rolled in the dirt once or twice? Up again, you shall never be so afraid of a tumble.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
