Excerpt from History, by Ralph Waldo Emerson There is one mind common to all individual men. Every man is an intet to the same and to all of the same. He that is once
admitted to the right of reason is made a freeman of the whole estate. What Plato has thought, he may think; what a saint has
felt, he may feel; what at any time has befallen any man, he can understand. Who hath access to this universal mind is a party to
all that is or can be done for this is the only and sovereign agent.
