"I would not have any one adopt..." - Quote by Henry David Thoreau

“Our taste is too delicate and particular. It says nay to the poet's work, but never yea to his hope.”

“A man cannot wheedle nor overawe his Genius. It requires to be conciliated by nobler conduct than the world demands or can appreciate.”

“The thoughtful man becomes a hermit in the thoroughfares of the marketplace.”

“Be Sure you Are Stepping to the Music you Hear - No Matter what Other People Think.”

“Taste cannot be controlled by law.”

“I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.”

“I'd like to live like a poor man with a lot of money.”

“My tastes are simple. I like only the very best.”

“I love watching keep-fit videos while munching chocolate chip cookies.”
