What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island of opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land; there is no other life but this (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
Where there is an observatory and a telescope, we expect that any eyes will see new worlds at once (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
If you can’t explain it to a six year old, you don’t understand it yourself. Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
There are as many strata at different levels of life as there are leaves in a book. When on the higher levels we can remember the lower levels, but when on the lower we cannot remember the higher (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
When we consider what, to use the words of the catechism, is the chief end of man, and what are the true necessaries and means of life, it appears as if men had deliberately chosen the common mode of living because they preferred it to any other.

Nowadays almost all man’s improvements, so called, as the building of houses and the cutting down of the forest and of all large trees, simply deform the landscape, and make it more and more tame and cheap (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)

I am amused to see from my window here how busily a man has divided and staked off his domain. God must smile at his puny fences running hither and thither everywhere over the land (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
A man receives only what he is ready to receive... The phenomenon or fact that cannot in any wise be linked with the rest of what he has observed, he does not observe (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)

I do not believe in lawyers, in that mode of attacking or defending a man, because you descend to meet the judge on his own ground, and, in cases of the highest importance, it is of no consequence whether a man breaks a human law or not. Let lawyers decide trivial cases (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
When we walk, we naturally go to the fields and woods: what would become of us, if we walked only in a garden or a mall? (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
