Henry David Thoreau
-
We know but a few men, a great many coats and breeches.
-
Instead of noblemen, let us have noble villages of men.
-
Men have a respect for scholarship and learning greatly out of proportion to the use they commonly serve.
-
I have thought there was some advantage even in death, by which we mingle with the herd of common men.
-
Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.
