The intellectual life may be kept clean and healthful, if man will live the life of nature, and not import into his mind difficulties which are none of his.
Ralph Waldo EmersonEvery man takes care that his neighbor shall not cheat him. But a day comes when he begins to care that he does not cheat his neighbor. Then all goes well. He has changed his market cart into a chariot of the sun.
Ralph Waldo EmersonEvery man is an infinitely repelling orb, and holds his individual being on that condition.
