Emerson was not a brilliant mind, but he strikes one as honest, and the more economical and less exalted style he employs in the journals is well fitted to the small incidents and details and thoughts recorded therein. The tone of the book has brought me a mild pleasure of the sort that I rarely experience from anything anymore, and this though many of the lessons and observations about initiative, being the master of one's one destiny, etc, are hard ones for a person such as I to face up to.
