Henry David Thoreau

Posted May 24th, 2005 by Taran

I have always been regretting that I was not as wise as the day I was born. The intellect is a cleaver; it discerns and rifts its way into the secret of things.

— Henry David Thoreau, Walden (1854), Chapter 2 : Where I Lived, and What I Lived For
