“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (via mwali)
Cause everybody knows that the hardest war to fight is the fight to be yourself in a world that wants to turn you in to someone else.
I’m supposing that Jon Foreman might have been influenced by this Emerson quote when he wrote “Against the Voices”.
