Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes

All things are engaged in writing their history...Not a foot steps into the snow, or along the ground, but prints in characters more or less lasting, a map of its march. The ground is all memoranda and signatures; and every object covered over with hints. In nature, this self-registration is incessant, and the narrative is the print of the seal.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Shallow men believe in luck or in circumstance. Strong men believe in cause and effect.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
