There is a certain class of unbelievers who sometimes ask me such questions as, if I think that I can live on vegetable food alone; and to strike at the root of the matter at once,--for the root is faith,--I am accustomed to answer such, that I can live on board nails. If they cannot understand that, they cannot understand much that I have to say.
Henry David ThoreauFaint heart never won true friend. O my friend, may it come to pass, once, that when you are my friend I may be yours.
Henry David ThoreauDeath is beautiful when seen to be a law, and not an accident. It is as common as life.
Henry David Thoreau
