In self-trust all the virtues are comprehended. Free should the scholar be,—free and brave. Free even to the definition of freedom, “without any hindrance that does not arise out of his own constitution.” The American Scholar lecture by Ralph Waldo Emerson https://www.gutenberg.org/files/16643/16643-h/16643-h.htm#THE_AMERICAN_SCHOLAR When I do projects I usually like to divide them up into differentContinue reading “Free Should the Scholar Be”
