Enjoy the best Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes. Quotations by Ralph Waldo Emerson (American Transcendentalist and Essayist)
Born: -

Go put your creed into the deed. Nor speak with double tongue

We aim above the mark to hit the mark

Skill to do comes of doing

Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door

What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered

Thought is the blossom; language the bud; action the fruit behind it

Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind

Good thoughts are no better than good dreams, unless they be executed

In skating over thin ice our safety is in our speed

Imagination is not a talent of some men but is the health of every man

Our distrust is very expensive

The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.
