Life is a journey, not a destination.
Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string.
A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within, more than the lustre of the firmament of bards and sages. Yet he dismisses without notice his thought, because it is his. In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts: they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty.
Ralph Waldo Emerson·1841To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
Michel de Montaigne·1580I do not speak the minds of others except to speak my own mind better.
Ralph Waldo Emerson·1841Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
