Framed Quote from Henry Thoreau Walden

Paper Crafts, St Patrick's Day Crafts

Today’s inspirational quote from Thoreau (free download) is for someone special, for a fellow blogger. I have been following her blog, and life, for 5 years, and she needed to hear some uplifting words on the topic of the ‘free to be authentic’ today.

thoreau quote walden

 

The message in this poem is most important, and comes from a little book by Thoreau called ‘Walden‘. Do you know it? Do you remember this passage?

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. — Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)

I was first given this quote and its suggestion ‘to go my own way’ when I was 16. The plaque has been in my life since. Needless to say, the background image has become oh-so-dated. but I know, it will one day be hip again, ha ha. As also paper on which this quote is written has become tarnished, I decided to make a whole new plaque for you to hang on your wall. Maybe it’s a great quote to hang above the bed of your teenager, or as an embroidery pattern for a pillow in her bedroom. Or maybe it’s for you.

Free downloadable quote plaque: click image to find the larger size to print.  When printed, the artwork is about 5 x 5 inches, with a 240 dpi. You can resize it to any dimension you want, of course.
