![]() ![]() I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary. “I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. It is a book that looks for the truth in nature and the inward nature we share with all beings. This is a big dream carried out in the minutia of living it simply, of understanding how we live, what is really required to sustain our “lifestyles”, what price we really pay for our unquestioning acceptance of our culture, society, religion, even the food we use as a given necessity. This book is part of an experiment in living, thinking, experiencing the ideas of a great man that dares us to confront our ideas with reality, to confront our reality with the force of ideas and the conviction to carry them out. ![]()
