Henry David Thoreau

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. 

Henry David Thoreau

The world is but a canvas to our imagination.

An early morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.

Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads.

Never look back unless you are planning to go that way.

Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.

It's not enough to be busy. So are the ants. The question is: What are we busy about.

Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant? 

Wealth is the ability to fully experience life.

 If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.  

The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.

What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us.

Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after.

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.
