Thanks for sharing the real gems of Emerson's still timely thoughts! Steve, it almost seems that today’s entrepreneur might be near to Emerson’s nonconformist.

Until I stumbled on his quote about principles: “As to methods there may be a million and then some, but principles are few. The man who grasps principles can successfully select his own methods. The man who tries methods, ignoring principles, is sure to have trouble.” Love from the first quote. Great post especially the bottom line :) Happy New Year!!

A post on Emerson and no comments yet! Are we anachronisms? I have just finished editing my father's book--a historical fiction about Emerson and a few other characters...Mark Twain among them. I'm sending you the book when it's out. I read, and re-read that essay so many times I thought I'd found a new bible. "Beware when the great god lets loose a thinker on this planet."

“Beware when the great god lets loose a thinker on this planet.”
