American poet, essayist, and journalist. A humanist, he was a part of the transition between transcendentalism and realism.
Hell is empty and all the devils are here
Violence can only breed more violence and suffering. Our struggle must remain non-violent and free of hatred
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak, it’s also what it takes to sit down and listen
Love truth, but pardon error
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it
Whoever gives advice to a heedless man is himself in need of advice
