Even the facts of science may dust the mind by their dryness, unless they are... rendered fertile by the dews of fresh and living truth. Knowledge does not come to us by details, but in flashes of light from heaven (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
The fact which interests us most is the life of the naturalist. The purest science is still biographical. Nothing will dignify and elevate science while it is sundered so wholly from the moral life of its devotee (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
It is childish to rest in the discovery of mere coincidences, or of partial and extraneous laws (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
We are enabled to apprehend at all what is sublime and noble only by the perpetual instilling and drenching of the reality that surrounds us. We can never have enough of nature (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)

Live in each season as it passes: breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)

As far back as I can remember I have unconsciously referred to the experiences of a previous state of existence (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
Who could believe in the prophecies... that the world would end this summer, while one milkweed with faith matured its seeds (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
I love you not as something private and personal, which is my own, but as something universal and worthy of love which I have found (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
One cannot too soon forget his errors and misdemeanors for to dwell long upon them is to add to the offense, and repentance and sorrow can only be displaced by somewhat better, and which is as free and original as if they had not been (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
Still we live meanly like ants, though the fable tells us we were long ago changed into men (Henry David Thoreau Quotes)
