Famous Quotes / Ralph Waldo Emerson
Ralph Waldo Emerson: "The President has paid dear for his White House. It has commonly cost him all his peace, and the best of his manly attributes. To preserve for a short time so conspicuous an appearance before the world, he is content to eat dust before the real masters who stand erect behind the throne."
