Ralph Waldo Emerson (May 25 1803 – April 27 1882)
All our progress is an unfolding, like the vegetable bud. You have first an instinct, then an opinion, then a knowledge, as the plant has root, bud, and fruit. Trust the instinct to the end, though you can render no reason. It is vain to hurry it. By trusting it to the end it shall ripen into truth, and you shall know why you believe.
Ralph Waldo Emerson (May 25, 1803 – April 27, 1882)

Great Freemasons: Robert Mills (August 12, 1781 – March 3, 1855)
Robert
Mills (August 12, 1781 – March 3, 1855), most famously known for
designing the Washington Monument, is sometimes called the first native
born American to become a professional architect, though Charles
Bulfinch perhaps has a clearer claim to this honor. Mills studied in
Charleston, South Carolina as a student of Irish-born architect James
Hoban—who later designed the White House, which became the official home
of US presidents. Both Hoban and Mills were Freemasons.

Great Freemasons: Christy Mathewson
You can learn little from victory. You can learn everything from defeat.
Christy Mathewson
Christopher "Christy" Mathewson (August 12, 1880 – October 7, 1925), nicknamed "Big Six", "The Christian Gentleman", or "Matty", was an American Major League Baseball right-handed pitcher. He was among the most dominant pitchers of his (or any) era and ranks in the all-time top-10 in major pitching categories such as wins, shutouts, and ERA. In 1936, Mathewson was elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame as one of its "first five" inaugural members.

Isaiah 10:1-2
Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees, to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless.

Great Freemasons: Steve Wozniak
If you love what you do and are willing to do what it takes, it's within your reach. And it'll be worth every minute you spend alone at night, thinking and thinking about what it is you want to design or build. It'll be worth it, I promise.
Stephen Gary "Steve" Wozniak (born August 11, 1950)
Stephen Gary "Steve" Wozniak, known as "Woz", is an American inventor, computer engineer and programmer who co-founded Apple Computer (now Apple Inc.) with Steve Jobs and Ronald Wayne. Wozniak single-handedly invented both the Apple I and Apple II computers in the 1970s. These computers contributed significantly to the microcomputer revolution.

Alfred Tennyson
“Tears, idle tears, I know not what they mean,
Tears from the depths of some divine despair
Rise in the heart, and gather to the eyes,
In looking on the happy autumn fields,
And thinking of the days that are no more.”
― Alfred Tennyson
