我到林中去，因为我想过一种更加深思熟虑的生活，去直面生命中更本质的东西。我想看看是不是能领会大自然给我的启示，这样到生命的终点的时候，不会遗憾地发现自己根本就没有活过。
梭罗
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life. And see if I could not learn what it had to teach and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
Thoreau.
这是两年前的春天,驻足于瓦尔登湖畔的小木屋前,仔细领会这段文字的意义.后来写信给我的一个中文系朋友,他如此译文.觉得有点意思.
