Self-Reliance by Ralph Waldo EmersonMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
As for the first half of the essay: If you are an excellent person and follow the advice in this essay, then it's probably going to work out well. If you're a horrible person, or if you think you're an excellent person but you're really kind of a low-grade specimen, and follow this essay, it's a recipe to be a huge jerk.
I like the second half of the essay better. I appreciate it's anti-consumerist bent. Even it's anti-technology section has some good points.
