Resist much, obey little
American poet, essayist, and journalist. A humanist, he was a part of the transition between transcendentalism and realism.
Respect is how to treat everyone, not just those you want to impress
Blushing is the most peculiar and most human of all expressions
The hand of liberality is stronger than the arm of power
Not to have a thing is less humiliating than to beg it
The question is not what you look at, but what you see
The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends
