Read the passage. my head is hands and feet. what does this statement from walden by henry david thoreau mean? the sense of touch is not that important. it is important to keep continuously busy. thinking is more important than physical activity. walking is a good way to clear one’s head.

Thinking is more important than physical activity.

Explanation:

The complete quote that Thoreau writes is:

"I do not wish to be any more busy with my hands than is necessary. My head is hands and feet."

In this line, Thoreau explains that he does NOT want to be busy with his hands. He also tells us that he feels that his head contains all of his best faculties. Thoreau implies that everything that the hands and feet do, even put together, does not equal the work done by the head. Therefore, he shows us that he believes thinking is more important than physical activity.
