Henry-David Thoreau: A successful life
What does it mean to be successful? Does one measure success by money? If I told you about a man who worked as a teacher, a land surveyor, and a factory worker (never holding any of these jobs for more than a few years", would that man sound like a success to you? If I told you that he spend two years living alone in a small cabin that he built for himself and that he spend those years looking at plants and writing in a diary--would you htink of him as a celebrity or an important figure? Do any of these facts seem to point to a man whose life should be studied and emulated?

i am not now thinking of the loss of property involved, immense and serious as that is, but only of the wanton and wholesale destruction of the lives of non-combatants, men, women, and children, engaged in pursuits which have always, even in the darkest periods of modern history, been deemed innocent and legitimate. property can be paid for; the lives of the peaceful and innocent people cannot be.
