The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.
More Henry David Thoreau quotes
"To have done anything just for money is to have been truly idle.
"Do what you love. Know your own bone; gnaw at it, bury it, unearth it, and gnaw it still.
"If you would convince a man that he does wrong, do right. Men will believe what they see.
"It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.
"To be admitted to Nature's hearth costs nothing. None is excluded, but excludes himself. You have only to push aside the curtain.
"The cost of a thing is the amount of what I will call life which is required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long run.
"The true price of anything you do is the amount of time you exchange for it.
