Description
Let us lift our heads from the stream of days that carry us along and look around – where are we actually headed? For contemplation, we need peace, so let us leave the city crowded with people. A walk through the woods, where we shuffle the leaves with our feet, will suffice? At least a single quiet week to ponder in the forest solitude! "A man is richer in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone. (...) I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life... 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."
