Henry David Thoreau's quotes


Henry David Thoreau was an American author and philosopher. He is best known for his book Walden and his essay Civil Disobedience.

Here are his inspiring quotes:

1. "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."

2. "It is not enough to be busy. So are the ants. The question is: What are we busy about? "

3. "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined. As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler. "

4. "All endeavor calls for the ability to tramp the last mile, shape the last plan, endure the last hours toil. The fight to the finish spirit is the one... characteristic we must possess if we are to face the future as finishers."

5. "As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again.To make a deep mentalpath, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to
dominate our lives."
