Which Reminds Me

Although my grandfather and also a cousin were named Ralph, yet I was never hugely fond of Ralph Waldo Emerson. Certainly Emerson was one of the great literary minds of American in the 19th century, so much of his writing is so purely brilliant, and yet we notice that his logic has some rather serious flaws in certain places. So we cannot put undue emphasis on the ramblings of Emerson. Certainly, some portions of his writings should be required reading for high school students everywhere, and yet other passages are rather dry or not so useful in the scheme of things. Anyway, just to ramble on about nature is a rare thing that perhaps no one could do so well as Emerson. Most of us have to get jobs and pay the rent.
