“Emerson's own best insight into fame is in his essay on Character. "The most dismaying aspect of fame from the point of view of its possessor is not just that fame is generally disproportionate to actual achievement, but that the fame that we first assume to be a reward for work well done becomes instead an impossible promise of about future work. Fame casts an anticipatory chill over current efforts because it awakens expectations that can never fully be met".”

“We have been striving for the things of the world and in this striving, have thrown ourselves into exile. When enough pain is experienced over a lifetime, people ask the perennial question; 'What must I do to be saved?' They must accomplish the reversal and turn towards G-d. There is no where else to go. No other path to take.”

“During personal prayers, I humbly talk to my Heavenly Father and express to Him my troubles, my wants, and my wishes. It is in prayer that I acknowledge and thank God for the blessings and tender mercies I receive. This quiet time is when I share the thoughts at the forefront of my mind. Then I listen to hear or feel impressions that come as answers to me. God is all-knowing of the purposes of life's trials. He understands the pain and sadness experienced in mortality. He knows. He cares. God does not take away the tribulations that I face, but He does help me through them so that I grow in experience, understanding, and compassion. So for every new day I face, I pray to God and work to trust His will above my own.”
