George William Curtis said, A smile broke over his face like day over the sky, and, At Emerson's house it is always morning. How could it have been otherwise with a man who loved humanity; whose whole life was spent in making the world happier and better; whose every sentence was full of hope and sweetness and courage. Who wrote, To help the young soul, add energy, inspire hope, and blow the coals into a useful flame; to redeem defeat by new thought, by firm action, that is not easy; that is the work of divine men. And he was one of the divine men whose work in life it was to do this. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: "Every great man is a unique". R.W Emerson told us that Self-confidence is always about independence : "What I must do is all that concerns me, not what the people think. This rule, equally arduous in actual and in intellectual life, may serve for the whole distinction between greatness and meanness. It is the harder because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know it. It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude."

This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Select Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson Philosophically considered, the universe is composedof'nal ture and the Soul. Strictly speaking, therefore, all that is separate from us, all which Philosophy distinguishes as the not me, that is, both nature and art, all other men and my own body, must be ranked under this name, nature. In enumerating the values of nature and casting up their sum, I shall use the word in both senses, in its common and in its philosophical import. In inquiries so general as our present one, the inaccuracy is not material 5 no confusion of thought will occur. Nature in the common sense, refers to essences unchanged by man; space, the air, the river, the leaf. Art is applied to the mixture of his will with the same things, as in a house, a canal, a statue, a picture. But his operations taken together are so insignificant, a little chipping, baking, patching, and washing, that in an impression so grand as that of the world on the human mind, they do not vary the result.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Memoir of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Vol. 1 of 2 My object in this book has been to offer to the readers and friends of Emerson some further illustrations, some details of his outward and inward history that may fill out and define more closely the image of him they already have, rather than to attempt a picture which should make him known to strangers, or set him forth in due relation to his surroundings or to the world at large. The position of literary executor to which he appointed me, and the desire of his family that I would write a memoir of him, have given me access to his unpublished writings (including many letters confided to me by some of his most valued correspondents, to whom I render hearty thanks), and to sources of information in the memories of persons who knew him in his early years and in his home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Memoir of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Vol. 2 of 2 At the time of the Divinity Hall address, Emerson, as I said, was intending to lecture, the next winter, in Boston; and he persevered, though he expected that his audience would be small. When the lectures began, however, in December, there was no appearance of any deterrent effect from the address. "The lecturing [he writes to his brother William] thrives. The good city is more placable than it was represented, and forgives, like Burke, much to the spirit of liberty." The attendance was large, and of the same class of persons as before, most of them, no doubt, Liberal Christians, but of a liberality that was not disturbed by his departure from the Cambridge platform. They came, as Mr. Lowell says, to hear Emerson, not to hear his opinions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ralph Waldo Emerson, Philosopher and Poet About twenty-five years ago Herman Grimm, a clever German writer, happened to be in the apartments of an American friend then sojourn ing in Germany. Upon the table lay a thin vol ume entitled Essays by R. W. Emerson. He glanced hastily over the leaves, but could make nothing out of their contents, and declared that they seemed to him to be sheer nonsense. His friend assured him that this was by no means the judgment of competent persons in America, where Emerson had come to be regarded as one of the foremost thinkers of the age - a man whose utterances were worthy of all attention, and, even when they seemed to be obscure, of careful study and meditation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ralph Waldo Emerson: A Discourse in West Church But I delight to recur to the perfect disposition in him that bore every test under the roof and by the way, so faith ful and patient it was, with its habitual, never-absent, and all-conquering smile, mild and not often impassioned; so that, if God could survey the concluded handiwork of crea tion and pronounce it good, he must have more decidedly the same opinion of such a man. As he came down from his chamber in my house, one morning, his face was covered with mosquito bites, hinting a sleepless, wretched night. But, to my sad and mortified interrogatory, i could get no word of explanation or regret. All to him seemed hospi tality and good cheer. One hot July day, I left his house without his knowledge, that he might not be disturbed and he ran after me through the dusty street, beseeching me to go back. While we stood, our altercation was interrupted by an inquiry from an old man with his dame in a rickety chaise, if we could tell him the road to Lexington, adding, I want to pass by the house of Ralph Waldo Emerson. Emerson gave me a private smile, and answered, pointing: That is his house. He is a poor man, but there is where he lives. He never unnecessarily let anybody, however curious, know who he was.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Vol. 2 of 5 It is natural to believe in great men. If the companions of our childhood should turn out to be heroes, and their condition regal, it would not surprise us. All mythology opens with demigods, and the circumstance is high and poetic; that is, their genius is paramount. In the legends of the Gautama, the first men ate the earth, and found it deliciously sweet. Nature seems to exist for the excellent. The world is upheld by the veracity of good men: they make the earth wholesome. They who lived with them found life glad and nutritious. Life is sweet and tolerable only in our belief in such society; and actually, or ideally, we manage to lire with superiors. We call our children and our lands by their names. Their names are wrought into the verbs of language, their works and effigies are in our houses, and every circumstance of the day recalls an anecdote of them. The search after the great men is the dream of youth, and the most serious occupation of manhood. We travel into foreign parts to find his works, - if possible, to get a glimpse of him. But we are put off with fortune instead. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
