Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Our strength grows out of our weaknesses.”

“It is only when the mind and character slumber that the dress can be seen.”

“Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.”

“A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.”

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

“Most of the shadows of life are caused by standing in our own sunshine.”

“Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.”
