Literary Quote of the Day: Ralph Waldo Emerson

the experience of each new age requires a new confession, and the world seems always waiting for its poet.

    A new confession: it sounds like we’re caught in a cycle of always needing to aplogize for yesterday’s mistakes.

    A new poet: after the apology, we need to find new inspiration and new hope.

  2. That’s very good Doma. Thanks for that.
