@wealthy-wisdom.bsky.social@wealthy-wisdom.bsky.socialIt is not enough to be busy; so are the ants. The question is: What are we busy about?
(忙しいだけでは不十分だ。アリだって忙しい。問題は何に対して忙しいかだ。)
@wealthy-wisdom.bsky.socialSuccess usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.
(成功は、それを探す暇もないほど忙しくしている人のもとに訪れる。)
@raccoon.techhub.social.ap.brid.gyI can never decide if #HenryDavidThoreau is actually a great #philosopher, or just a very quotable one from early #US #history. Like, he's a cool guy who says interesting things, but is there really a groundbreaking #philosophy here? :blobcoffeeraccoon:
@wealthy-wisdom.bsky.socialGo confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.

@ownerofh.bsky.socialTardy #QOTD for August 24, 2023, is from #AWeekOnTheConcordAndMerrimackRivers by #HenryDavidThoreau “Gradually the village murmur subsided, and we seemed to be embarked on the placid current of our dreams, floating from past to future as silently as one awakes to fresh morning or evening thoughts.”
@princetonupress.bsky.socialIn The Walden Experiments, Robert Thorson tells the story of how, after several discarded drafts of social critique, Henry David #Thoreau resuscitated Walden with a sharp swerve toward #science.

@paulinepark.bsky.social#HenryDavidThoreau left Walden Pond #OnThisDay in 1847, moving in with Ralph Waldo Emerson, the other great figure in New England Transcendentalist #philosophy; his essays about the two years living on the pond would become a classic:
