It contains the most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes: the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow their own instincts and ideas. It is the source of one of Emerson's most famous quotations: \"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines.\" This essay is an analysis into the nature of the \"aboriginal self on which a universal reliance may be grounded.\" \"Man is his own star; and the soul that can Render an honest and a perfect man, Commands all light, all influence, all fate; Nothing to him falls early or too late. Our acts our angels are, or good or ill, Our fatal shadows that walk by us still.\"\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Funk \u0026 Wagnalls Co","offers":[{"title":"Self Reliance | Ralph Waldo Emerson | Paperback | 0308102045 | Used: Very Good | Self-Help 1615887","offer_id":48431943614616,"sku":"1615887","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/616FMngxJEL.jpg?v=1773353186","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/self-reliance","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
