Waldo

Famous quotes containing the word waldo:

    An empire is an immense egotism.
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    But it is found that the machine unmans the user. What he gains in making cloth, he loses in general power. There should be a temperance in making cloth, as well as in eating.
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Skepticism is unbelief in cause and effect. A man does not see, that, as he eats, so he thinks: as he deals, so he is, and so he appears; he does not see that his son is the son of his thoughts and of his actions; that fortunes are not exceptions but fruits; that relation and connection are not somewhere and sometimes, but everywhere and always; no miscellany, no exemption, no anomaly,—but method, and an even web; and what comes out, that was put in.
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
