Additional quotes by Henry David Thoreau
In the Hindoo scripture the idea of man is quite illimitable and sublime. There is nowhere a loftier conception of his destiny. He is at length lost in Brahma himself 'the divine male. ' ... there is no grandeur conception of creation anywhere .... The very indistinctness of its theogeny implies a sublime truth.
