-Ralph Waldo Emerson, New England Reformers
New England Reformers (1844), by Ralph Waldo Emerson, is a lecture the author delivered to the American Anti-Slavery Society, led by William Lloyd Garrison. In it, Emerson offered an explanation of his refusal to join utopian movements, arguing that he could not support any organization unequivocally if it elevated the well-being of society at the expense of the development and perfection of the individual.
