Ralph Waldo Emerson Romantic Quotations

What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.

Every ship is a romantic object, except that we sail in. Embark, and the romance quits our vessel, and hangs on every other sail in the horizon.

To laugh often and love much... to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to give one's self... this is to have succeeded.

Love and you shall be loved. All love is mathematically just, as much as two sides of an algebraic equation.

It is not the irregular hours or irregular diet that makes the romantic life.

The moment we indulge our affections, the earth is metamorphosed.

Perhaps love is only the highest symbol of friendship, as all other things seem symbols of love.
