About this listen
Ralph Waldo Emerson was a master of distilling vast ideas into sharp, unforgettable truths. Elements and Mottos is a collection of his intellectual essence—bold, electrifying, and timeless. Here, Emerson does not merely write; he declares, urging readers to abandon conformity, embrace their own genius, and live with unshakable purpose.
Each passage is a spark, igniting thought and action. He speaks of nature, the soul, self-reliance, and the boundless strength of individual will. His words resonate across centuries, inspiring rebels, dreamers, and seekers of wisdom. These are not just mottos—they are challenges, pushing the reader toward personal greatness.
For those who crave clarity amid life's noise, Elements and Mottos is both a guide and a provocation. Emerson does not offer comfort; he offers a call to courage. His wisdom is not meant to be passively read, but actively lived.
Dive into the mind of one of America's most revolutionary thinkers and find, perhaps, the words that will change your own path.
PLEASE NOTE: Along with this title, you will receive a PDF document with extra content.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,448
Beth and her gentle, kind husband Frank are happily married, but their relationship relies on the past staying buried. But when Beth’s brother-in-law shoots a dog going after their sheep, Beth doesn’t realize that the gunshot will alter the course of their lives. For the dog belonged to none other than Gabriel Wolfe, the man Beth loved as a teenager—the man who broke her heart years ago. Gabriel has returned to the village with his young son Leo, a boy who reminds Beth very much of her own son, who died in a tragic accident.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 167
To trace the history of the twenty-first century so far is to trace a history of unaffordability and shortage. After years of refusing to build sufficient housing, America has a national housing crisis. After years of limiting immigration, we don’t have enough workers. Despite decades of being warned about the consequences of climate change, we haven’t built anything close to the clean-energy infrastructure we need. Ambitious public projects are finished late and over budget—if they are ever finished at all.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 383
Compiled by intrepid journalist Neve Pride, this archive of recordings spans the months after dragons emerged on earth, chronicling the communities that sprang up amid the destruction, the scientists, military leaders, and experts searching for a defense, and those steadfastly seeking the missing. Neve and her young daughter Bex travel among the wreckage speaking to those left behind and surviving, against all odds. Neve records everything for history, and in the hopes of locating a clue as to where the dragons came from and how one might stop them.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.
