When a thought of Plato becomes a thought to me,--when a truth that fired the soul of Pindar fires mine, time is no more.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

They wait for no introduction; they are no Englishmen; ask no leave of age or rank; they respect neither property nor riches, neither learning nor power, nor virtue, nor sex, but intrude, and come again, and go through and through you in a moment of time. What inundation of life and thought is discharged from one soul into another through them! Ralph Waldo Emerson
running determination taken
The craft with which the world is made runs also into the mind and character of men.

Ralph Waldo Emerson
running fall blessing
