Henry David Thoreau Quotes:
Ocupation: Author
Life: July 12, 1817 - May 6, 1862
Birthday: July 12
Death: May 6
Every day a new picture is painted and framed, held up for half an hour, in such lights as the Great Artist chooses, and then withdrawn, and the curtain falls. And then the sun goes down, and long the afterglow gives light.
