Thoreau

1967 U.S. postage stamp honoring Thoreau ”But, to speak practically and as a citizen, unlike those who call themselves no-government men [3], I ask for, not at one no government, but at once a better government. Let every man make known what kind of government would command his respect, and that will be one step toward obtaining it.”

-excerpt from On the Duty of Civil Disobedience (1848)
