Margaret Fuller quotes about

For precocity some great price is always demanded sooner or later in life.
This is the method of genius, to ripen fruit for the crowd by those rays of whose heat they complain.

Our capacities, our instincts for this our present sphere are but half developed. Let us be completely natural; before we trouble ourselves with the supernatural.
