For my part, I could easily do without the post-office. I think that there are view few important communications made through it. To speak critically, I never received more than one or two letters in my life...that were worth the postage.

It is remarkable, that notwithstanding the universal favor with which the New Testament is outwardly received, and even the bigotry with which it is defended, there is no hospitality shown to, there is no appreciation of, the order of truth with which it deals. I know of no book that has so few readers. There is none so truly strange, and heretical, and unpopular.

All streams are but tributary to the ocean, which itself does not stream, and the shores are unchanged but in longer periods than man can measure. Go where we will, we discover infinite change in particulars only, not in generals.

DIE KUNST ZU LEBEN MIT WENIGER: Das RADIKALE PROJEKT von Henry David Thoreau – Von Jenseits des Geistes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fPJzmAB2LE
In einer Welt, die uns ständig dazu drängt, mehr zu besitzen – mehr Geld, mehr Erfolg, mehr Aufmerksamkeit –, stellt dieses Video eine kraftvolle Gegenfrage: Was wäre, wenn wahre Freiheit entsteht, wenn wir lernen, weniger zu brauchen? Inspiriert vom Philosophen Henry David Thoreau, der 1845 in eine selbstgebaute Hütte am Walden-See zog, beleuchtet dieses Video die zeitlose Weisheit eines Lebens mit weniger Ballast. Thoreau lebte radikale Einfachheit, nicht aus Entbehrung, sondern aus innerer Klarheit.

No man ever stood the lower in my estimation for having a patch in his clothes; yet I am sure that there is greater anxiety, commonly, to have fashionable, or at least clean and unpatched clothes, than to have a sound conscience.
