“I like to be depressing. I feel it's my duty to make everyone a little less happy. You know that line in the Declaration of Independence, "the pursuit of happiness"?

“What I must do is all that concerns me, not what people think. This rule,equally arduous in actual and intellectual life, may serve for the whole distinction between greatness and meanness. It is the harder, because you will always find those who think they know what is your duty better than you know it. It is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.” PeopleThinkingKnowsMenWorldMayWholeEasyPerfectOpinionLearningGreatnessDutySolitudeIntellectualConcernHarderIndependenceCrowdsGreat MenDistinctionMidstSweetnessSelf RelianceRelianceBetter Than YouMeannessIntellectual Life Book:Selected Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson Source: Selected Writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson
