“Thoreau’s assault on the
Concord society of the mid-nineteenth century has the quality of a modern
western: he rides into the subject at top speed, shooting in all
directions...and when the shooting dies down and the air clears, one is
impressed chiefly by the courage of the rider and by how splendid it was that
somebody should have ridden in there and raised all that ruckus.”—E.B. WHITE
“Thoreau defined his own
position to the world not only with unflinching honesty, but with a glow of
rapture at his heart. He seems to hug his own happiness.”—VIRGINIA WOOLF
“After reading Thoreau I felt
how much I have lost by leaving nature out of my life.”—F. SCOTT FITZGERALD
