Emerson Console

Famous quotes containing the words emerson and/or console:

“Housekeeping is not beautiful; it cheers and raises neither the husband, the wife, nor the child; neither the host nor the guest; it oppresses women. A house kept to the end of prudence is laborious without joy; a house kept to the end of display is impossible to all but a few women, and their success is dearly bought.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

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