Drawn from what Henry David Thoreau said
What Henry David Thoreau actually said
- Henry David Thoreau American philosopher and writer (1817 to 1862)
I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute Freedom and Wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than a member of society.
