Self-Reliance - 03 July 2003 . 00:25
From Emerson's essay "Self-Reliance":
There is a time in every man's education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself or better, for worse, as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his soil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given to him to till. The power which resides in him is new in nature, and none but he knows what that is which he can do, nor does he know until he has tried...Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind. Absolve you to yourself and you shall have the suffrage of the world...
