Love Equals The Swift…

Love Equals Swift and Slow

Love equals swift and slow
And high and low
Racer and Lame
The hunter and his game


Henry David Thoreau, the American author and naturalist, is considered one of the most influential figures in American thought and literature. A supreme individualist, Thoreau championed the human spirit against materialism and social conformity. His most famous work, Walden (1854), is an eloquent account of his experiment in near-solitary living in close harmony with nature. It is also an expression of his personal transcendentalist philosophy. His short poem, above, is one of my favorites.

Life’s greatest gift is love, and life’s greatest joy is sharing it.
