: I really need help with some questions about Henry David Thoreau's Walden. Here are the questions that have me stuck: : "Age is no better, hardly so well, qualified for an instructor as youth, for it has not profited so much as it has lost." : 1. On which side ofthe generation gap would Thoreau have found himself? : "Public opinion is a weak tyrant compared with our won private opinion. What a man thinks of himself, that it is hwich determines, or rather indicates, his fate." : 2. What does this quote mean to you? : 3. Do you agree or disagree with the point Thoreau makes? : Many philosophers have declared that we don't own our possesions; our possesions own us. Do you agree? Does Thoreau seem to agree in the following statement? : "When the farmer has got his house, he may not be the richer but the poorer for it, and it be the house that has got him." : Well that's it! I would really appreciate your help : Thanks, Brooke
