[Henry David Thoreau @HenryDAPUSH2018]

@gavinapush1804 I believe Humanity and nature is good, society is evil.

[F. Scott Fitzgerald @FScottF58310739]

@HenryDAPUSH2018 I follow you because you were a great #poet on nature but also on the meanings of life

[Chief Joseph @ChiefJoseph2018]

@HenryDAPUSH2018 i am following you because you wrote about the bad in the #fugitiveslavelaws which I also believe were bad because we need to be equal.

[Peter Zenger @ZengerApush2018]

@HenryDavidT2018 I am following you because you published Civil Disobedience where you argued that governments shouldn't be unjust

[Dorothea Dix APUSH2018 @dorotheadixAP18]

@HenryDavidT2018 I am following you because you said society #corrupts the purity of the individual, and I wonder if you believe that could you say society affects the way people treat others thereby affecting #segregation in the US

[William Jennings Bryan @WJBAPUSH2018]

@HenryDAPUSH2018 I agree with your #civildisobedience

[Susan B. Anthony @SusanBA01834333]

@HenryDAPUSH2018 hey henry! I’ve decided to follow you because I couldn’t agree anymore that one must oppose the unjust actions of our government. Reason for which I’ve fearlessly fought for women’s rights (including suffrage). JUSTICE.

[Josiah Strong @StrongAPUSH2018]

@HenryDAPUSH2018 I am following you, because like me, you believed societal evils corrupted the purity of an individual. #SocialEvilsGottaGo

[Richard Nixon @NixonAPUSH18]

@HenryDAPUSH2018 I chose to follow you because we both advocated for the preservation of nature.

[Rachel Carson @RachelCApush18]

@HenryDAPUSH2018 And I follow you in return since we both heavily believe in saving the nature and not causing any detriments to our planet #environmentalistmovment

[Huey Long @HueyLongAPUSH18]

@HenryDAPUSH2018 I enjoy reading your philosophical ideas

[Henry David Thoreau @HenryDAPUSH2018]

Books are the treasured wealth of the world and the fit inheritance of generations and nations.

[Henry David Thoreau @HenryDAPUSH2018]

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them. #goals #security #aspirations #foundations #futility #work-lost

[Henry David Thoreau @HenryDAPUSH2018]

Things do not change; we change. #common_sense #inspirational #philosophy

[Henry David Thoreau @HenryDAPUSH2018]

Government is at best but an expedient; but most governments are usually, and all governments are sometimes, inexpedient.

[Henry David Thoreau @HenryDAPUSH2018]

The government itself, which is only the mode which the people have chosen to execute their will, is equally liable to be abused and perverted before the people can act through it.

[Henry David Thoreau @HenryDAPUSH2018]

There are thousands who are in opinion opposed to slavery and to the war,who yet in effect do nothing to put an end to them;who,esteeming themselves children of Washington and Franklin,sit down with their hands in their pockets,and say that they know not what to do,and do nothing

[Henry David Thoreau @HenryDAPUSH2018]

The rich man is always sold to the institution which makes him rich.
#dependency

[Henry David Thoreau @HenryDAPUSH2018]

Law never made men a whit more just; and, by means of their respect for it, even the well-disposed are daily made the agents of injustice.
