Promised Land

It is remarkable that among all the preachers there are so few moral teachers. The prophets are employed in excusing the ways of men. - Thoreau

Author's Note

"I have not yet learned to live, that I can see, and I fear that I shall not very soon. I find, however, that in the long run things correspond to my original idea,--that they correspond to nothing else so much; and thus a man may really be a true prophet without any great exertion. The day is never so dark, nor the night even, but that the laws at least of light still prevail, and so may make it light in our minds if they are open to the truth." - Thoreau
