"I went into the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation unless it was quite necessary.

I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and spartanlike as to put to route all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner and reduce it to its lowest terms...

And if it proved to be mean? Why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and to publish its meanness to the world; but if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and to be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion..." ----Henry David Thoreau.
