  3. “I have always been regretting that I was not as wise as the day I was born. The intellect is a cleaver; it discerns and rifts its way into the secret of things. I do not wish to be any more busy with my hands than is necessary. My head is hands and feet. I feel all my best faculties concentrated in it.”

  8. 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.
