At the extreme north, the voyagers are obliged to dance and act plays for employment.
Henry David ThoreauThere is no ill which may not be dissipated, like the dark, if you let in a stronger light upon it.
Henry David ThoreauMost of the luxuries and many of the so-called comforts of life are not only not indispensable but positive hindrances to our progress. Our life is frittered away by detail. I say let your affairs be as two or three, not a hundred or a thousand. And keep your accounts on your thumb nail.
Henry David Thoreau
