Redefining the classic essay, this modern edition of Ralph Waldo Emerson's most famous work, Self-Reliance, includes self-reflections from both historical and contemporary luminaries. With quotes from the likes of Henry Ford and Helen Keller to modern-day thought leaders like Jesse Dylan, Steve Pressfield, and Milton Glaser, we're reminded of the relevance of Emerson's powerful words today.Emerson's words are timeless. Persuasive and convincing, he challenges readers to define their own sense of accomplishment and asks them to measure themselves against their own standards, not those of society. This famous orator has utter faith in individualism and doesn?t invoke beyond what is humanly possible, he just believes deeply that each of us is capable of greatness. He asks us to define that greatness for ourselves and to be true to ourselves.At times harsh, at times comforting, Emerson's words guide the reader to challenge their own beliefs and sense of self.This modern edition of Self-Reliance is ideal for graduates or those who are in the midst of a career or lifestyle change. Emerson's sage guidance wrapped in modern-day reflections is a great reminder about the potential within us all and that life is what you make of it.

有些過於說教瞭...最喜歡的一段“If you are noble, I will love you; if you are not, I will not hurt you and myself by hypocritical attention. If you are true, but not the same truth with me, cleave to your own companions; I will seek my own."
評分一邊做PPT 一邊就把這書讀完瞭。話說,在這個時代尤其需要這樣的思想啊。

評分大二時候讀過一遍。今天再讀,感覺是美驢國驢性根源之一。。Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires. 不過這雞湯寫得倒是不賴,讀起來很順暢不枯燥,值得中文雞湯寫手們淆習。
評分部分看法過於偏激
