There is no penalty to virtue; no penalty to wisdom; they are proper additions of being. In a virtuous action, I properly am; in a virtuous act, I add to the world; I plant into deserts conquered from Chaos and Nothing, and see the darkness receding on the limits of the horizon. There can be no excess to love; none to knowledge; none to beauty, when these attributes are considered in the purest sense. The soul refuses limits, and always affirms an Optimism, never a Pessimism. — Ralph Waldo Emerson, Essays: First Series (via philosophybits)

“Philosophical thought is inward action; it appeals to freedom; it is a summons to transcendence.” – Karl Jaspers, Way to Wisdom
