pg 24
" That man that does not beleive that each day contains an earlier, more sacred, and Auroral hour than he has yet profaned, has despaired of life, and is pursuing a descending and darkening way."
The reason why i picked this quotation is because what he is saying are very strong and effectionate words. He shows how much he cares about the Auroral and earlier times of day. He thinks that if you dont care about a eariler time of day or the Auroral that your just a waste of time and space. He beleives that there is always a earlier time of day and it should never be wasted. This quotation tells us that we should always try to do things earlier and if we do then we have more time in our lives. I especially agree with this because for example, if you are sleeping till 12:30 then you just wasted a good 5 or 6 hours of your life doing nothing. Thoreau is just trying to say not to ever try to waste time cause its not good for you or other people sometimes.
