More quotes by Henry David Thoreau
The dinner even is only the parable of a dinner, commonly.
Henry David Thoreau
Show me a man who feels bitterly toward John Brown, and let me hear what noble verse he can repeat. He'll be as dumb as if his lips were stone.
Henry David Thoreau
Unlike the Concord, the Merrimack is not a dead but a living stream, though it has less life within its waters and on its banks. It has a swift current, and, in this part of its course, a clayey bottom, almost no weeds, and comparatively few fishes.
Henry David Thoreau
The richest gifts we can bestow are the least marketable. We hate the kindness which we understand.
Henry David Thoreau
I say, break the law.
Henry David Thoreau

Henry David Thoreau
If I ever see more clearly at one time than at another, the medium through which I see is clearer.
Henry David Thoreau
Be it life or death, we crave only reality.
Henry David Thoreau

Henry David Thoreau
Live your beliefs and you can turn the world around.
Henry David Thoreau
Music never stops it is only the listening that is intermittent.
Henry David Thoreau
The best way to correct a mistake is to make it right.
Henry David Thoreau
If you chance to live and move and have your being in that thin stratum in which the events that make the news transpire,--thinnerthan the paper on which it is printed,--then these things will fill the world for you but if you soar above or dive below that plane, you cannot remember nor be reminded of them.
