More quotes by Henry David Thoreau, Walden

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived."
"As if you could kill time without injuring eternity."
"How many a man has dated a new era in his life from the reading of a book."
"Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star."
"Things do not change; we change."
