More quotes by Henry David Thoreau

"Do not lose hold of your dreams or aspirations. For if you do, you may still exist but you have ceased to live."
"Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it."
"Write while the heat is in you. The writer who postpones the recording of his thoughts uses an iron which has cooled to burn a hole with. He cannot inflame the minds of his audience."
"To be a philosopher is not merely to have subtle thoughts, nor even to found a school, but so to love wisdom as to live according to its dictates, a life of simplicity, independence, magnanimity and trust."
