Quotes about Emerson

The House
...She lays her beams in music,
In music every ore,
To the candence of the whirling world
Which dances round the sun-
That so they shall not be displaced
By lapses or by wars,
But for the love of happy souls
Out live the newest stars.

-- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Go, speed the stars of Thought On to their shining goals; -- The sower scatters broad his seed, The wheat thou strew'st be souls. Ralph Waldo Emerson Source: Intellect-- from Essays: First Series (1841)
