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.
Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence
Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it
The brave may not live forever – But the cautious do not live at all
Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle
