This is one of the greatest books you will ever read. Many people dont like to read essays of any kind, but Ralph Waldo Emerson is simply different! Nobody has the gift to write essays and analyze life like him.

His words and ideas are so powerful and deep that we soon realize that they didnt come only from a brilliant mind, but also from a warm-hearted soul!

Thats exactly what this book is about: Its sentences break through your brain and penetrate right into your soul! Emersons optimistic view on human beings and life can only reinforce our courage in mankind and, especially, in ourselves!

His speech is direct, he defends all the good values, tell us to have confidence in ourselves and show us that passing through life with dignity is a matter of choice and courage, and that it simply doesnt change with time. It was like this a thousand years ago, it will probably follow the same rules a thousand years from now.

This is the book youll grab to comfort your spirit when you are having difficult times... :) It is a guide that make us believe that anything is possible when we really want it! Self-Reliance , one of the essays inside this book, is a masterpiece in its own and should be made compulsary reading in high school.

This book can shape your spirit and your mind. It is also possibly THE BEST self-help book you could ever own and, yet, a great literary work.
