Every moment of light and dark is a miracle
American poet, essayist, and journalist. A humanist, he was a part of the transition between transcendentalism and realism.
I never see what has been done; I only see what remains to be done
A bit of science distances one from God, but much science nears one to Him
Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence
Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen
It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop
You cannot travel the path until you have become the path itself
