The most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes, the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his or her 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." This essay is a considered a watershed moment in which transcendentalism became a major cultural movement. An American classic.

AESOP'S FSBLES STE TIMELESS GEMS OF WISDOM
Just as a UN Undersecretary told me in 2010, on launching my book on Proverbs,fables like parables or proverbs are the chips that carry summaries of ancient wits or wisdom .Aesop's Fables serve the same purpose. I recommend them as a daily tonic for all those who need wisdom for life.
