Each is liable to panic, which is exactly, the terror of ignorance surrendered to the imagination. Knowledge is the encourager, knowledge that takes fear out of the heart, knowledge and use, which is knowledge in practice. They can conquer who believe they can. It is he who has done the deed once who does not shrink from attempting again.
Ralph Waldo EmersonThe days come and go but they say nothing, and if we do not use the gifts they bring, they carry them as silently away.
Ralph Waldo EmersonHe is a good man, who can receive a gift well. We are either glad or sorry at a gift, and both emotions are unbecoming.
