Ralph Waldo Emerson Sacred Quotations

No facts to me are sacred; none are profane.

But lest I should mislead any when I have my own head and obey my whims, let me remind the reader that I am only an experimenter.Do not set the least value on what I do, or the least discredit on what I do not, as if I pretended to settle any thing as true or false. I unsettle all things. No facts are to me sacred; none are profane; I simply experiment, an endless seeker with no Past at my back.

Let me admonish you, first of all, to go alone; to refuse the good models, even those which are sacred in the imagination of men, and dare to love God without mediator or veil.

No law can be sacred to me but that of my nature.

No facts are to me sacred; none are profane; I simply experiment, an endless seeker, with no past at my back.
