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.
