Quote

quote icon horeau, a Transcendentalist, was not a puritan denying himself material resources or avoiding pleasure in a search for spiritual nourishment from physical deprivation. Instead, he believed those with high goals should recognize their limited need for money and possessions. In his eyes, the danger of material things came from their potential addictiveness as they became the chief focus of life, consuming a great deal of time and energy.
