Ralph Waldon Emerson 1803-1882

This was an awesome speech and had some awesome points within it. I really liked how it said, " the world looks like a multiplication-table, or a mathematical equation, which turn it how you will, balances itself ". How true that is, everywhere you look there is good and bad in some way, shape or form. Where there are trees and flowers so will there be weeds. Where there are good people, so are there bad people. There are bad people, I think, to help the good people learn patience, kindness to everyone no matter how mean they are. I also like how it said, "Every act rewards itself, or in other words integrates itself, in a twofold manner". Or in other words for every action there is a consequence. When you are good to others, they will in turn help others, and everyone can enjoy the attitude of helping other. The same thing goes for those who steal and hurt others. Someday they will be punished and they will have to deal with the consequences of their actions. This was a very good speech and had alot of positives points that are great for everyone to take into account.
