Henry David Thoreau “journals

Quote from: June 27th
- “For an impenetrable shield, stand inside yourself”
- The strongest shield is in side yourself. This means when you are felling vulnerable look inside your self to find the answer. It is not an actual shield agent’s physical force. If you are self reliant and confident you can look inside yourself and will always fell comfortable and confident.

Quote form December 2nd
- We do not all stand in front ranks of the battle every moment of our lives; where is a brave man there is the thickest of the fight, there the post of honor.
- This means that it doesn’t matter where you stand in battle, the front line or last you are still putting your life on the line and are brave. When a brave man is in battle it is the hardest and thickest of the fight. This is because a brave man won’t back down and will continue on event if his life is endangered. A man that is not brave may back down and wont fight till the end but a brave man will stick it out not looking at the outcome for his own life.
