More From Ralph Waldo Emerson

Through plato, aristotle came to believe in god; but plato never attempted to prove his reality. aristotle had to do so. plato contemplated him; aristotle produced arguments to demonstrate him. plato never defined him; but aristotle thought god through logically, and concluded with entire satisfaction to himself that he was the unmoved mover.

I do feel like i owe something, but not to the industry. when you say "industry," i think of a group of people who don't really care much about you and treat you as a commodity. so, in that regard, i don't feel like i owe anything. but the people who've always been supportive of me and have always seen me for my greatest potential-those are the people who i feel like i owe something to. i feel like i am their voice. i owe it them to represent them in a way that they can be proud of.

Look, we'll have to confront the pathologies of poverty at some point. we can deal with them cheaply at the front end, in infancy. or we can wait and jail a troubled adolescent at the tail end. to some extent, we face a choice between investing in preschools or in prisons.
