Henry David Thoreau Quotes:

Ocupation: Author

Life: July 12, 1817 - May 6, 1862

Birthday: July 12

Death: May 6

But why should not the New Englander try new adventures - not lay so much stress on his grain, his potato and grass crop, and his orchards - and raise other crops than these? Why concern ourselves so much about our beans for seed, and not be concerned at all about a new generation of men.

- Henry David Thoreau
