Things don't change. We change...

Things don't change. We change.

Many an object is not seen, though it falls within the range of our visual ray, because it does not come within the range of our intellectual ray.

Henry David Thoreau 3216 quotes

I begin to see an object when ...

I begin to see an object when I cease to understand it.

Henry David Thoreau 3216 quotes

It is only necessary to behold...

It is only necessary to behold the least fact or phenomenon, however familiar, from a point a hair's breadth aside from our habitual path or routine, to be overcome, enchanted by its beauty and significance ... To perceive freshly, with fresh senses is to be inspired.

Henry David Thoreau 3216 quotes

It often happens that a man is more humanely related to a cat or dog than to any human being.

Heaven might be defined as the place which men avoid.

Henry David Thoreau 3216 quotes

I am struck by the simplicity ...

No human being, past the thoughtless age of boyhood, will wantonly murder any creature which holds its life by the same tenure that he does.

The sail, the play of its pulse so like our own lives: so thin and yet so full of life, so noiseless when it labors hardest, so noisy and impatient when least effective.

Henry David Thoreau 3216 quotes

Government never furthered any enterprise but by the alacrity with which it got out of its way.

Henry David Thoreau 3216 quotes

It would be well, perhaps, if ...

It would be well, perhaps, if we were to spend more of our days and nights without any obstruction between us and the celestial bodies, if the poet did not speak so much from under a roof, or the saint dwell there so long. Birds do not sing in caves, nor do doves cherish their innocence in dovecots.

The best thing a man can do for his culture when he is rich is to endeavor to carry out those schemes which he entertained when he was poor

Henry David Thoreau 3216 quotes

The culture of the hop ... so ...

The culture of the hop ... so analagous to the culture and uses of the grape, may afford a theme for future poets.

Henry David Thoreau 3216 quotes

If I am not I, who will be?...

If I am not I, who will be?

It is not all books that are as dull as their readers.

How often we find ourselves turning our backs on our actual friends, that we might go and meet their ideal cousins.

What wealth is it to have such friends that we cannot think of them without elevation!

Henry David Thoreau 3216 quotes

Friends will not only live in ...

Friends will not only live in harmony, but in melody.

How can we expect a harvest of thought who have not had a seedtime of character?

There is more religion in men's science, than there is science in their religion.
