More From Henry David Thoreau
- "There are old heads in the world who cannot help me by their example or advice to live worthily and satisfactorily to myself; but I believe that it is in my power to elevate myself this very hour above the common level of my life."
- "I have learned, that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."
- "Do what you love. Know your own bone; gnaw at it, bury it, unearth it, and gnaw it still."
More In Faith
- "Such a faith would be fatal to my reason, to my liberty, and even to the success of my undertakings; it would immediately transform me into a stupid slave, an instrument of the will and interests of others."― Mikhail Bakunin
- "We consider Christmas as the encounter, the great encounter, the historical encounter, the decisive encounter, between God and mankind. He who has faith knows this truly; let him rejoice."― Pope Paul VI
- "Faith makes all things possible… love makes all things easy."― Dwight L. Moody
