Henry David Thoreau
  • Live your life, do your work, then take your hat.

  • Live the life you've dreamed.

  • If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.

  • I think that there is nothing, not even crime, more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself than this incessant business.

  • There is always a present and extant life, be it better or worse, which all combine to uphold.
