Henry David Thoreau

There is no more fatal blunderer than he who consumes the greater part of his life getting his living.
Henry David Thoreau

I think that there is nothing, not even crime, more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself than this incessant business.
Henry David Thoreau

Nature and human life are as various as our several constitutions. Who shall say what prospect life offers to another?
Henry David Thoreau
