Visible

Famous quotes containing the word visible:

    Being a parent is unlike any previous job—the results of any one action are not clearly visible for a long time, if at all.

    The visible heavens and earth sympathize with Jesus.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    But real action is in silent moments. The epochs of our life are not in the visible facts of our choice of a calling, our marriage, our acquisition of an office, and the like, but in a silent thought by the way-side as we walk; in a thought which revises our entire manner of life, and says,—”Thus hast thou done, but it were better thus.”
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
