One response to ““There Is No Royal Road To Learning.” –RALPH WALDO EMERSON”
Hey thanks for the tribute to Emerson. He’s in one of my absolute favorites. This is a favorite quote of mine of his:
“What I must do is all that concerns me, not what people think.
This rule,equally arduous in actual and intellectual life, may serve for the whole distinction between greatness and meanness. It is the harder, because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know it. It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.” -Emerson
