Excerpts from this Thoreau quote appear everywhere online and in our world. They are a source of inspiration and encouragement for people of all ages and people in all walks of life: "live the life you've imagined" and "go confidently in the direction of your dreams." This is a matted print of the actual quote from Walden:

"I learned this, at least, by my experiment; that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours." - Henry David Thoreau
