  1. A quotation from Emerson

       A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within, more than the lustre of the firmament of bards and sages. Yet he dismisses without notice his thought, because it is his.
       In every work of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts; they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty. Great works of art have no more affecting lesson for us than this. They teach us to abide by our spontaneous impression with good-humored inflexibility then most when the whole cry of voices is on the other side. Else to-morrow a stranger will say with masterly good sense precisely what we have thought and felt all the time, and we shall be forced to take with shame our own opinion from another.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) American essayist, lecturer, poet
    Essay (1841), “Self-Reliance,” Essays: First Series, No. 2

  2. Today (yesterday) Thanksgiving is celebrated in the USA

    "Gratitude doesn't ask us to look away from injustice.

    It asks us to keep our eyes open long enough
    to see the whole table and help make sure
    that everyone has a seat at it."
    ~Cheryl Melody Baskin
