Mr. Emerson is not one whose vocation it is to state processes of argument ; he is a seer who reports in sweet and significant words what he sees. He looks into the infinite of truth, and records what there passes before his vision. If you see it as he does, you will recognize him for a gifted teacher ; if not, there is little or nothing to be said about it.

Página 28 - I have long seen that the Unitarians must break into two schools, — the Old one, or English school, belonging to the sensual and empiric philosophy, — and the New one, or the German school (perhaps it may be called), belonging to the spiritual philosophy.
