Great men are they who see that ... thoughts rule the world.
More Quotes from Ralph Waldo Emerson:
It came into him life, it went out from him truth. It came to him short-lived actions it went from him poetry. It was a dead fact now, it is quick thought. It can stand, and it can go. It now endures, it now flies, it now inspires. Precisely in porportion to the depth of mind from which it issued, so high does it soar, so long does it live.Ralph Waldo Emerson
