Quotes by Henry David Thoreau

Never look back unless you're planning to go that way.

Man has become the tool of his tools.

Do not hire a man who does your work for money, but him who does it for love of it.

Our inventions are wont to be pretty toys, which distract our attention from serious things. They are but improved means to an unimproved end, an end which it was already but too easy to arrive at.

Simplify, simplify.

This world is but canvas to our imaginations.
