More From Ralph Waldo Emerson

Living in the now is freedom from all problems connected with time. you ought to remember that sentence, you ought to memorize it, and ought to take it out, you ought to practice it, you ought to apply it. and most of all, you ought to rejoice in it because you have just heard how not to be wretched, miserable you any more but to be a brand new, and forever brand new man or woman.

Rude Known
Once in his life, a man ought to concentrate his mind upon the remembered earth, i believe. he ought to give himself up to a particular landscape in his experience, to look at it from as many angles as he can, to wonder about it, to dwell upon it. he ought to imagine that he touches it with his hands at every season and listens to the sounds that are made upon it. he ought to imagine the creatures there and all the faintest motions of the wind. he ought to recollect the glare of noon and all the colors of the dawn and dusk.

It is not given to man to know the whole truth. his duty lies in living up to the truth as he sees it, and in doing so, to resort to the purest means, i.e., to non-violence. god alone knows absolute truth. therefore, i have often said, truth is god. it follows that man, a finite being, cannot know absolute truth. nobody in this world possesses absolute truth. this is god's attribute alone. relative truth is all we know. therefore, we can only follow the truth as we see it. such pursuit of truth cannot lead anyone astray.
Truth Lying Mean
A man must first of all understand certain things. he has thousands of false ideas and false conceptions, chiefly about himself, and he must get rid of some of them before beginning to acquire anything new. otherwise the new will be built on a wrong foundation and the result will be worse than before. to speak the truth is the most difficult thing in the world; one must study a great deal and for a long time in order to speak the truth. the wish alone is not enough. to speak the truth one must know what the truth is and what a lie is, and first of all in oneself. and this nobody wants to know.

I'd be lying if i said i had confidence in every choice i've made, that i have faith in every film i do on every shot.
Lying Choices Have Faith
The glance is natural magic. the mysterious communication established across a house between two entire strangers, moves all the springs of wonder. the communication by the glance is in the greatest part not subject to the control of the will. it is the bodily symbol of identity with nature. we look into the eyes to know if this other form is another self, and the eyes will not lie, but make a faithful confession what inhabitant is there.

A great value of antiquity lies in the fact that its writings are the only ones that modern men still read with exactness.
