Henry David Thoreau Quote

The ears were made, not for such trivial uses as men are wont to suppose, but to hear celestial sounds.


A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers (ed. 1873)


The ears were made, not for such trivial uses as men are wont to suppose, but to hear celestial sounds.

The ears were made, not for such trivial uses as men are wont to suppose, but to hear celestial sounds.

The ears were made, not for such trivial uses as men are wont to suppose, but to hear celestial sounds.
