Thoreau wanted to ______ deliberately and practiced _____ disobedience.
Excerpt from Walden
Welcome!
My furniture, part of which I made myself, and the rest cost me nothing of which I have not rendered an account, consisted of a bed, a table, a desk, three chairs, a looking-glass three inches in diameter, a pair of tongs and andirons, a kettle, a skillet, and a frying-pan, a dipper, a wash-bowl, two knives and forks, three plates, one cup, one spoon, a jug for oil, a jug for molasses, and a japanned lamp. None is so poor that he need sit on a pumpkin. Furniture! Thank God, I can sit and I can stand without the aid of a furniture warehouse.... Indeed, the more you have of such things the poorer you are...Pray, for what do we move ever but to get rid of our furniture?
Thoreau doesn't think he's poor enough to sit on one.
