Recently, I was discussing self-reliance with a respected mentor-sort-of figure and they recommended I pick up a copy of Ralph Waldo Emerson's 1841 Essay, Self- Reliance. I did, and I was very drawn to a specific phrasing within it.
I shun father and mother and wife and brother when my genius calls me. I would write on the lintels of the door-post, Whim.
