Emerson Console

Famous quotes containing the words emerson and/or console:

“It was her stern necessity: all things
Are of one pattern made; bird, beast, and flower,
Deceive us, seeming to be many things,
And are but one. Beheld far off, they differ
As God and devil; bring them to the mind,
They dull its edge with their monotony.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Lonely people console themselves with self-absorption or curiosity.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
