• "Every heart vibrates to that iron string"

- One of the students translated this quote by saying that the whole world is a guitar
- Every person is a string to attach to that guitar

• "Man is timid and apologetic"

- Society is powerful while the people are scared to do new things
- We the people always apologize for things that we don't need to apologize  for

• "Roses don't compete with other roses"

- The roses represents a person
-Roses represents society
- Emerson describes that people don't have to compete with other people
- We shouldn't compare ourselves to other people because we are one of a kind

• "Populists rejects.."

-Also states that society is strong

• "What I must do is all that concerns me, not what the people think"
