Fighting the Affluenza Epidemic in AmericaYishak Bililign1/30/2015B-Day

“Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth.” 

“Simplify, simplify, simplify!” 

 “My greatest skill in life has been to want but little”

 “Books are the treasured wealth of the world and the fit inheritance of generations and

nations.” 

“I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. To be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I

love to be alone.”

“The cost of a thing is the amount of what I will call life which is

required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long run.” 

“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.” 

“A lake is a landscape's most beautiful and expressive feature. It is

Earth's eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his

own nature.”  

“A taste for the beautiful is most cultivated out of doors” 

“We do not ride on the railroad; it rides upon us”

“As for the Pyramids, there is nothing to wonder at in them so much as the fact

that so many men could be found degraded enough to spend their lives

constructing a tomb for some ambitious booby, whom it would have been wiser

and manlier to have drowned in the Nile, and then given his body to the dogs.” 

“The luxuriously rich are not simply kept comfortably warm, but unnaturally hot; as I implied before, they are cooked, of

course _à la mode_”
