Thoreau quotes

-
Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth
To me it mean that the person doesn't want money, love,fame they just want you to trust them with anything and you give them trust. Their refer to society.

 Do not hire a man who does your work for money, but him who does it for love of it.
To me it means don't get someone who will do things for money but find someone who would do it for love no matter what. They refer to nature.

 Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.
This quote means a lot to me since it apply to me when I found out I was pregnant I felt that everything  was falling down. I felt that I was no going to have my parent support and not have a place to live and i didn't know if i was going to keep my way to school, since my daughter was going to change my life.But I ended up finding doing myself capable of taking care of a kid and going to school this proves to me how strong I can be without me even knowing. Their refer to really life.
