Along with Emerson and Whitman, this guy is the writer/philosopher/poet most in accord with my own weltanschuuang. All three are gloriously quotable. Here’s my top ten from Thoreau, in no particular order: 1. *The question is not what you look at, but what you see.* 2. *The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation. From the desperate city you go into the desperate country, and have to console yourself with the bravery of minks and muskrats. A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. There is no play in them, for this comes after work. But it is a characteristic of wisdom not to do desperate things.* 3. *I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.* 4. *You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island of opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land; there is no other life but this.* 5. *If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music he hears, however measured or far away.* 6. *Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify.* 7. *I would rather sit on a pumpkin, and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion.* 8. *The greatest compliment that was ever paid me was when one asked me what I thought, and attended to my answer.* 9. *Things do not change; we change.* 10. *A man is rich in proportion to the number of things which he can afford to let alone.* Like stars in the firmament, there are countless others, he is that quotable. Perhaps after all, this is my all-time favourite: *I say, beware of all enterprises that require new clothes, and not rather a new wearer of clothes.* 🥸

"I left the woods for as good a reason as I went there. Perhaps it seemed to me that I had several more lives to live, and could not spare any more time for that one. It is remarkable how easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route, and make a beaten track for ourselves. I had not lived there a week before my feet wore a path from my door to the pond-side; and though it is five or six years since I trod it, it is still quite distinct. It is true, I fear, that others may have fallen into it, and so helped to keep it open. The surface of the earth is soft and impressible by the feet of men; and so with the paths which the mind travels. How worn and dusty, then, must be the highways of the world, how deep the ruts of tradition and conformity! I did not wish to take a cabin passage, but rather to go before the mast and on the deck of the world, for there I could best see the moonlight amid the mountains. I do not wish to go below now." interesting to see these people following his story, to which his whole point was not to follow anyone. Not even Him
@TheNebraska4027 жыл бұрын
valid. but, people follow the principles and ideas he forged and not necessarily followed his path. even Christopher McCandless studied Thoreau and reveled in his ideas to the point of eliminating materialism from daily life and venturing to Alaska to live simply like Thoreau suggests. McCandless has his unique path heavily influenced by Thoreau. on another note, even though this comment is a year after your post, did you mention to capitalize 'Him' at the end. if so, that is sort of clever to compare Thoreau to a god by using capitalization

thank you for that beautiful, awe-inspiring quote. I often forget about his famous quoted reason for leaving the pond, putting too much focus on the powerful, achingly beautiful quote about his reason for going TO Walden in the first place. Because he didn't want to come to find, when he died, that he had never truly lived. It has some kind of spell, his words! I swear, he is not a man, he is a Divine Being

Maybe I got out.of the wrong side of the bed this morning, but "compartmentalizing" Henry David Thoreau is one of the attitudes this philosopher "went to the woods" to get away from. There is Thoreau the Environmentalist, Thoreau the political radical, author of Civil Disobedience; Thoreau the anti-social misanthropist; Thoreau the Nature nut and tree hugger. These impressions are NOT what I get out of Walden everytime I read it. He had no axe to grind and he wasn't trying to "convince" anybody of anything. First, those new to Walden are often surprised by how funny it is. So many common expressions we pull from it: March to a different drummer; did not want to come to the end of my life discovering I had not lived; most men lead lives of quiet desperation; better a live dog than a dead lion. Thoreau could have been the poster boy for the saying "less is more." Thoreau probably qualifies as our only original philosopher. I doubt anybody I can think of would agree with everything Thoreau writes in Walden. But from the Far Left to the Far Right, I have a a strong belief that anyone who READS the whole book-it will change some part of their outlook on life. How much do we really need? Do we take our ability to read and write we learn in compulsory schooling- do we DO anything with that literacy? Or do we read "junk" books as well as eat "junk" food. Do we read anything that might require, as Thoreau writes, to stand on tip-toe? Finally, if Thoreau we're alive today, he might go further than Walden Pond in Concord- he might go to the Arctic Circle in protest- if he were living in a world that dumped all the Ancient writers he so loved: Homer, Aeschylus, Plato, etc. From school curriculum has "having nothing to say to today's world." He would counter-- If these books have survived relatively intact for thousands of years- requiring constant re-writing.over the centuries, as the printing press only came into use around 1450. The problem isn't these banished books. The problem is Us.

His writings, for something written that long ago, could have been written today in its wording. But Thoreau only lived to be 44, never married or had children. So, at 75, there is a gap between our existences.

I know, right? I totally agree. Henry was anti-taxes and anti-war. But the authorities caught up to him and put him in jail twice! Once for non payment of taxes and once for not going to war. Since he couldn't escape tyranny, he left Walden's pond after two years. I suppose if his strategy had worked, he would've lived there for life. He supported himself by growing and selling beans. He wasn't a conservationist, he just hated the system! The same banker-oligarchs that still send our men (now women) off to fight their wars and make wage-slaves of us all. Then as now, all wars are banker's wars. And our taxes are in the same vain. Read chapter one - Henry thought it was unreasonable to mortgage your personal freedom for 10 years to an employer to pay off a house mortgage. Indians (yes, he said Indians) lived in wigwams - no mortgage, but bankers convinced european peoples that that wasn't 'civilized.' I wonder what he would say to any educated man, or woman, who would willingly sign a 30 Year Mortgage! Bankers come up with traps, educated men & women are supposed to use their brains to get out of these traps and/or to avoid them altogether. We haven't been doing such a good job, have we?

Dennis M Have you ever watched a mama bird build a nest to feed her young relentlessly? And she does not pay for the tree nor twigs. She has no license to hunt for worms and insects to feed her hungry youths. Man alone seems to look down upon the true work of living and has in higher esteem the very servitude Thoreau wished to avoid. The colonizers and even quite recent descendants of them called the Americans Natives “dirty and lazy.” It is nature’s way among animals, plants and non-organic substances to conserve energy. Thoreau was a philosopher who asked no one to agree with him. It does seem a bit lazy and selfish, and yet maybe that’s missing the point of understanding Thoreau. The earth and its inhabitants would be much stronger and healthier living according to his philosophy. Alas, it is not the business of poets to be the most practical people, but show us ways and ideas we might not have considered.
