Carry Ralph Waldo Emerson's wisdom with you in this inspirational guide that features 60 of his most insightful quotes.


As an "adventuring heretic," Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) challenged comfortable assumptions about nature, scientific understanding, and divine intelligence. The Sage of Concord's writings continue to inspire and influence new generations of thinkers and readers as he bridges the wild places of the heart and intellect.


In Meditations of Ralph Waldo Emerson, editor Chris Highland pairs 60 Emerson passages with inspirational quotes from historical and contemporary luminaries as diverse as Margaret Fuller, the Dalai Lama, and Jack Kerouac. Take this pocket-size guide with you on backpacks, nature hikes, and camping trips. Let Emerson's words enrich your experience as you ponder the wilderness from riverbank, mountaintop, or as you relax beside your campfire.


Inside you'll find:

  • 60 inspiring Ralph Waldo Emerson quotes

  • Selections of text from other philosophical minds

  • Short excerpts for convenient reading


This portable sampler of 60 selections--from 30 years of Emerson's writings--reveals the essence of Emerson's spiritual vision. Journey into the mind and heart of this great 19th century author, poet, and philosopher whose writings remain relevant and inspiring today.

Chris Highland is an interspiritual chaplain, author, songwriter, and poet. He completed his undergraduate studies in religion and philosophy in Seattle, Washington, before settling in the San Francisco Bay Area to complete his master's degree. A passionate saunterer, he enjoys an intimate relation with Nature in forests, mountains, and waterfalls. An avowed heretic ("one who seeks new paths"), Chris's writing reflects his exploration of the edges of human society and his playful search for what Emerson called "high, clear, and spiritual conversation," to be had by each and every one of us as "beggars on the highway." Chris is the author of Meditations of John Muir: Nature's Temple, Meditations of Henry David Thoreau: A Light in the Woods, and Meditations of Ralph Waldo Emerson: Into the Green Future, all from Wilderness Press.
