Waldo

Famous quotes containing the word waldo:

    Proverbs, like the sacred books of each nation, are the sanctuary of the intuitions. That which the droning world, chained to appearances, will not allow the realist to say in his own words, it will suffer him to say in proverbs without contradiction.
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Why should we assume the faults of our friend, or wife, or father, or child, because they sit around our hearth, or are said to have the same blood?
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    They should own who can administer, not they who hoard and conceal; not they who, the greater proprietors they are, are only the greater beggars, but they whose work carves out work for more, opens a path for all.
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
