Emerson on Friendship

February 24, 2010

Since beginning this blog I have not posted once on the philosopher from whom I stole the name of this blog. So here’s one of my favorite Ralph Waldo Emerson quotes.

It is not instruction, but provocation, that I can receive from another soul.

– Ralph Waldo Emerson, ‘Address to Harvard Divinity School,’ 1838
