Henry David Thoreau

A man cannot be said to succeed in this life who does not satisfy one friend.

True friendship can afford true knowledge. It does not depend on darkness and ignorance.

The most I can do for my friend is simply be his friend.

The language of friendship is not words but meanings.

Be true to your work, your word, and your friend.

When I hear music, I fear no danger. I am invulnerable. I see no foe. I am related to the earliest times, and to the latest.

All men are children, and of one family. The same tale sends them all to bed, and wakes them in the morning.

Faith never makes a confession.

Faith keeps many doubts in her pay. If I could not doubt, I should not believe.

The smallest seed of faith is better than the largest fruit of happiness.

Wealth is the ability to fully experience life.

Thank God men cannot fly, and lay waste the sky as well as the earth.

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.

Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake.

I have learned, that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.

Friends... they cherish one another's hopes. They are kind to one another's dreams.

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.

Dreams are the touchstones of our character.

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

If I knew for a certainty that a man was coming to my house with the conscious design of doing me good, I should run for my life.
