The morning, which is the most memorable season of the day, is the awakening hour. Then there is least somnolence in us; and for an hour, at least, some part of us awakes which slumbers all the rest of the day and night.

It matters not what the clocks say or the attitudes and labors of men. Morning is when I am awake and there is a dawn in me.

-Henry David Thoreau, Walden

Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Turn the old; return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.

-Henry David Thoreau, Walden
