Henry David Thoreau Quotes

As I Walked In The Woods To See The Birds And Squirrels, So I Walked In The Village To See The Men And Boys; Instead Of The Wind Among The Pines I Heard The Carts Rattle. In One Direction From My House There Was A Colony Of Muskrats In The River Meadows; Under The Grove Of Elms And Buttonwoods In The Other Horizon Was A Village Of Busy Men, As Curious To Me As If They Had Been Prarie-dogs, Each Sitting At The Mouth Of Its Burrow, Or Running Over To A Neighbor's To Gossip. I Went There Frequently To Observe Their Habits.
