Overview

Excerpt from The Superlative and Other Essays Finally the essay on Social Aims contains wise principles with which to enter upon the con scious membership of society. There comes a time, early or late, in every one's life, when individuality asserts itself strongly, and the three earlier essays reinforce, as Emerson mainly does in his writings, the consciousness of individual worth.
