I discover myself on the verge of a usual mistake
American poet, essayist, and journalist. A humanist, he was a part of the transition between transcendentalism and realism.
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
How many legs does a dog have if you call his tail a leg? Four. Saying that a tail is a leg doesn’t make it a leg
Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go
A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life
If I was a bird, I know who I'd shit on
There is nothing on this earth more to be prized than true friendship
