More From Ralph Waldo Emerson

Every spirit builds itself a house; and beyond its house a world; and beyond its world, a heaven. know then, that the world exists for you. for you is the phenomenon perfect. what we are, that only can we see. all that adam had, all that caesar could, you have and can do. adam called his house, heaven and earth; caesar called his house, rome; you perhaps call yours, a cobler's trade; a hundred acres of ploughed land; or a scholar's garret. yet line for line and point for point, your dominion is as great as theirs, though without fine names. build, therefore, your own world.

My name is adam. my father's name is adam. having the same name as your father, it's alright until your voice changes. my friends would always call up, 'is adam there?' my father would say, 'this is adam.' my friends would say, 'adam, you were so wasted last night.'

So where does the name adam's apple come from? most people say that it is from the notion that this bump was caused by the forbidden fruit getting stuck in the throat of adam in the garden of eden. there is a problem with this theory because some hebrew scholars believe that the forbidden fruit was the pomegranate. the koran claims that the forbidden fruit was a banana. so take your pick---adam's apple, adam's pomegranate, adam's banana. eve clearly chewed before swallowing.

Why, friends, you go to do you know not what: wherein hath caesar thus deserved your loves? alas, you know not: i must tell you then: you have forgot the will i told you of. . . . . here is the will, and under caesar's seal. to every roman citizen he gives, to every several man, seventy-five drachmas. . . . . moreover, he hath left you all his walks, his private arbours and new-planted orchards, on this side tiber; he hath left them you, and to your heirs for ever, common pleasures, to walk abroad, and recreate yourselves. here was a caesar! when comes such another?

The gods were bored and so they created man. adam was bored because he was alone, so eve was created. thus boredom entered the world, and increased in proportion to the increase in population. adam was bored alone, then adam and eve were bored together; them adam and eve and cain and abel were bored en famille; then the population of the world increased, and the people were bored en masse.

The bible is the story of two gardens: eden and gethsemane. in the first, adam took a fall. in the second, jesus took a stand. in the first, god sought adam. in the second, jesus sought god. in eden, adam hid from god. in gethsemane, jesus emerged from the tomb. in eden, satan led adam to a tree that led to his death. from gethsemane, jesus went to a tree that led to our life.
