ABOUT THIS CARVING

Full Inscription: Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. - Emerson

Origins: The distinctive letterform used for this carving was inspired by one found in a circa 1900 Boston type catalog and it works superbly with Emerson’s upbeat message. However, it is interesting to note his flanking sentences. While they are a bit more sobering, they nonetheless reinforce the importance of each day - and hour. Here they are:

“One of the illusions is that the present hour is not the critical, decisive hour. Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. No man has learned anything rightly until he knows that every day is Doomsday.”

We say, just truly take to heart his positive thought from our carving and the rest will follow!

Recommended Finish: We really like this carving in our Vintage Cherry finish because it works so well with the lighter, upbeat tone of Emerson's great thought.
