 I suppose you think that persons who are as old as your father and myself are always thinking about very grave things, but I know that we are meditating the same old themes that we did when we were ten years old, only we go more gravely about it.

 I think that there is nothing, not even crime, more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself, than this incessant business

 I think that we may safely trust a good deal more than we do. We may waive just so much care of ourselves as we honestly bestow elsewhere.

 I think we may safely trust a good deal more than we do.

 I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it

 I was daily intoxicated, yet no man could call me intemperate

 I was never unusually squeamish; I could sometimes eat a fried rat with a good relish, if it was necessary

 If a man constantly aspires is he not elevated?

 If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.

 If a man is alive, there is always danger that he may die, though the danger must be allowed to be less in proportion as he is dead-and-alive to begin with. A man sits as many risks as he runs.Walden
