I've added a new human to my list of influential beings and great things they said. Emerson, indeed. I encountered his writing in the summer of last year, but turned away from it because I was required to read it and wasn't enjoying it so much. Now, I'm realizing his genius and his love of God all in one. I think they may be related....just maybe. Think about it for a second. Anyway, here's a couple I just read and will be adding to my wall of quotes in my room:
A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.
All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen.
Character is higher than intellect...A great soul will be strong to live, as well as to think.
Every great and commanding moment in the annals of the world is the triumph of some enthusiasm.
That last one was made for me :) hehe
