"Having reached the term of his natural..." - Quote by Henry David Thoreau

“Severe truth is expressed with some bitterness.”

“Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life so.”

“The majority of the men of the North, and of the South and East and West, are not men of principle. If they vote, they do not sendmen to Congress on errands of humanity; but while their brothers and sisters are being scourged and hung for loving liberty,... it is the mismanagement of wood and iron and stone and gold which concerns them.”

“Look Back in forgiveness, forward in hope, down in compassion and up in gratitude.”

“The greatest moments in life are not concerned with selfish achievements, but rather with the things we do for others”

“Things change that's the way it is.”

“That the equalization of property exercises an influence on political society was clearly understood even by some of the old legislators. Laws were made by Solon and others prohibiting an individual from possessing as much land as he pleased.”

“Man is, at one and the same time, a solitary being and a social being.”

“It's legal for men to be floorwalkers and illegal for women to be streetwalkers.”
