EMERSONIAN QUOTE
Ralph Waldo Emerson's youthful spirit would last as long as he lived because of his continuing fidelity to his early ideals. Even at the age of 79, he was still carrying in his pocket the small compass that symbolized for him the foremost of these early ideals -- the instant availability of supernal power to the questing human mind.
Carlos Baker, Emerson Among The Eccentrics
