Ralph Waldo Emerson Nuts Quotations

Talents differ; all is well and wisely put; If I cannot carry forests on my back, Neither can you crack a nut.

The squirrel hoards nuts and the bee gathers honey, without knowing what they do, and they are thus provided for without selfishness or disgrace.

Here is the world, sound as a nut, perfect, not the smallest piece of chaos left, never a stitch nor an end, not a mark of haste, or botching, or second thought; but the theory of the world is a thing of shreds and patches.
