亨利·戴维·梭罗的名言

1、我走入森林，是因为我希望认真地生活，去面对生命的根本，看自己是否能学会生命要教给我的东西，而不是在临死之前才发现自己从未曾真正生活过。我不希望过无法称之为生活的日子，生活是如此的可爱；我也不希望听任命运的摆布，除非必须如此。我想深刻地生活，汲取生命所有的精华。我想活得足够坚定 足够斯巴达 以便把非生命的一切轻轻推倒。去砍伐一片宽阔地 小心修葺;将生命驰进一个角落 把需求减到最低。如果这么做证明给我无聊 何不收获这份无聊的全部和原貌 并把它公布给世界。又或 如果它是高尚的 我须亲自体验 由此我才能在下一个航程中对它有个真实的说法。

对许多人而言 在我看来是这样 他们对生活的认识处于陌生不确定 他们不能确定生活的属性是魔鬼还是上帝 却多少有些匆忙地下了结论说一介凡人生活的最高境界是“赞美上帝，与神永乐”）”

。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.

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 wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it

to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.

For most men, it appears to me, are in a strange uncertainty about it, whether it is of the devil or of God, and have somewhat hastily

concluded that it is the chief end of man here to "glorify God and enjoy him forever."

It is not enough to be industrious, so are the ants. What are you industrious for?

—— H. D. Thoreau 梭罗

只有勤劳是不够的，蚂蚁就很勤劳。可是要看你为了什么而勤劳

Do not be too moral. You may cheat yourself out of much life. Aim above morality. Be not simply good, be good for something.

-Henry David Thoreau

2、如果一个人和他的同伴没有保持步伐，也许是因为他听到了另一种鼓点。就让他按他自己的步伐前进，无论他走得多快、多慢或多远。

3、一个有时间增加他灵魂的财富的人才能真正享受闲暇。

4、善良是唯一永远不会失败的投资。

5、灵魂的必需品并不需要用金钱来购买。

6、人类已成了他们的工具的工具。

7、我们能够爱的人，我们也能恨他们。而其余的人，则对我们无关紧要。

8、即使在天堂，挑刺的人也会找到刺。

9、许多人钓了一辈子的鱼，却不知道他们钓鱼的目的并不是为了鱼。

10、等到我们迷失了，我们才会开始了解自己。

11、多余的财富只能买来多余的东西。

12、大多数的奢侈品和许多所谓的生活便利品，不仅不是不可或缺的，而且对人类的进步是一种阻碍。

13、绝对而言，财富越多，美德就越少。

14、充满自信地追求你的梦想！去过你梦想中的生活。当你让自己的生活变得简单，宇宙的法则也会变得简单。 15、我们的生活都被耗费在细节上……简单，再简单。

16、不要回头看，除非你想走回去。

17、任何事物的代价等于你用多少生命去换取它

18、你必须活在当下，乘着每一个波浪前行，在每一刻找到你的永恒。傻瓜站在他们的机会之岛上寻找另一片陆地。没有别的陆地，除了这一生，没有别的生命。

19、爱就是试图去将梦中的世界变为现实。 20、生命并没有价值，除非你选择并赋予它价值。没有哪个地方有幸福，除非你为自己带来幸福。

21、我们最真实的生活是当我们清醒地活在自己的梦中。

22、当我们从容不迫而睿智，我们就知道，只有大事和有价值的事才是永久的和绝对存在的，而细微的害怕和愉悦只是真实的阴影。

23、最大的收获和价值远不能受到人们的赞赏。我们很容易怀疑它们是否存在。 我们很快把它们忘记了。它们是最高的现实。也许最惊人、最真实的事实从来 没有在人与人之间交流过。我每天生命的最真实的收获，就像朝霞暮霭那样难 以捉摸，无法言传。那是我抓到的一点儿星尘，一片彩虹。

Henry David Thoreau (born David Henry Thoreau; July 12, 1817 – May 6, 1862) (properly pronounced Thaw-roe)[1] was an American author, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, historian, and leading transcendentalist. He is best known for his book Walden, a reflection upon simple living in natural surroundings, and his essay Civil Disobedience, an argument for individual resistance to civil government in moral opposition to an unjust state.

Thoreau's books, articles, essays, journals, and poetry total over 20 volumes. Among his lasting contributions were his writings on natural history and philosophy, where he anticipated the methods and findings of ecology and environmental history, two sources of modern day

environmentalism. His literary style interweaves close natural

observation, personal experience, pointed rhetoric, symbolic meanings, and historical lore, while displaying a poetic sensibility, philosophical [2]austerity, and "Yankee" love of practical detail. He was also deeply

interested in the idea of survival in the face of hostile elements, historical change, and natural decay; at the same time he advocated abandoning waste and illusion in order to discover life's true essential needs.[2]

He was a lifelong abolitionist, delivering lectures that attacked the Fugitive Slave Law while praising the writings of Wendell Phillips and defending abolitionist John Brown. Thoreau's philosophy of civil disobedience influenced the political thoughts and actions of such later figures as Leo Tolstoy, Mohandas Gandhi, and Martin Luther King, Jr. Thoreau is sometimes cited as an individualist anarchist.[3] Though Civil Disobedience seems to call for improving rather than abolishing

government – "I ask for, not at once no government, but at once a better government"[4] – the direction of this improvement points toward

anarchism: "'That government is best which governs not at all;' and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have."[4] Richard Drinnon partly blames Thoreau for the ambiguity, noting that Thoreau's "sly satire, his liking for wide margins for his writing, and his fondness for paradox provided ammunition for widely divergent interpretations of 'Civil Disobedience.'" He further points out that although Thoreau writes that he only wants "at once" a better government, that does not rule out the possibility that a little later he might favor no government.[5]

"Most of the luxuries and many of the so-called comforts of life are not only not indispensable, but positive hindrances to the elevation of mankind."

第二篇：梭罗名句

梭罗名句　　我宁愿独自坐在一只南瓜上，而不愿拥挤地坐在天鹅绒的座垫上。　　我喜欢独处。我从没遇到过比孤独更好的伴侣。　　清晨的散步是对一整天的祝福。　　如果我真的对云说话，你千万不要见怪。　　城市是一个几百万人一起孤独地生活的地方。 　　如果一个人和他的同伴没有保持步伐，也许是因为他听到了另一种鼓点。就让他按他自己的步伐前进，无论他走得多快、多慢或多远。　　心灵永远是缺乏经验的。　　有时生病是有益于健康的。 　　与其给我爱、金钱或名誉，不如给我真理。　　一个有时间增加他灵魂的财富的人才能真正享受闲暇。　　善良是唯一永远不会失败的投资。　　灵魂的必需品并不需要用金钱来购买。　　人类已成了他们的工具的工具。　　一所精美的房子又有何用，如果你没有一个可以容忍的摆放它的星球？　　世界只是我们的想象的画布。　　大多数人在安静的绝望中生活，当他们进入坟墓时，他们的歌还没有唱出来。　　不要雇一个为钱而替你工作的人。 　　我们能够爱的人，我们也能恨他们。而其余的人，则对我们无关紧要。 　　即使在天堂，挑刺的人也会找到刺。 　　许多人钓了一辈子的鱼，却不知道他们钓鱼的目的并不是为了鱼。　　等到我们迷失了，我们才会开始了解自己。 　　多余的财富只能买来多余的东西。　　大多数的奢侈品和许多所谓的生活便利品，不仅不是不可或缺的，而且对人类的进步是一种阻碍。　　绝对而言，财富越多，美德就越少。　　富裕是全然体验生活的能力。　　充满自信地追求你的梦想！去过你梦想中的生活。当你让自己的生活变得简单，宇宙的法则也会变得简单。 　　活出你的信念，你就能转动世界。　　我们的生活都被耗费在细节上……简单，再简单。　　不要回头看，除非你想走回去。　　任何事物的代价等于你用多少生命去换取它。 　　天堂在我们的头上，也在我们的脚下。　　你必须活在当下，乘着每一个波浪前行，在每一刻找到你的永恒。傻瓜站在他们的机会之岛上寻找另一片陆地。没有别的陆地，除了这一生，没有别的生命。　　爱就是试图去将梦中的世界变为现实。　　生命并没有价值，除非你选择并赋予它价值。没有哪个地方有幸福，除非你为自己带来幸福。　　我们最真实的生活是当我们清醒地活在自己的梦中。　　我们必须学会再次醒来，并让自己保持清醒，不是靠机械的帮助，而是靠对黎明的无限期望。　　当我们从容不迫而睿智，我们就知道，只有大

事和有价值的事才是永久的和绝对存在的，而细微的害怕和愉悦只是真实的阴影。　　一本真正的好书教给我的远不止只是阅读它。我必须很快将它放在一边，然后按照它来生活。我始于阅读，终于行动。　　于身体有益的是劳作，与灵魂有益的是灵魂的工作，于两者都有益的是为他人工作。　　活过每一个季节；呼吸空气，喝水，品尝水果，让自己感受它们对你的影响。
