Field Trip

Kathryn by Silver Gelatin Print. This was a picture of a girl sitting on a toilet. She has a cigarette hanging from her figures and she has a visible attitude about her. Between the clothes she is wearing and the dark makeup around her eyes you can tell she doesn’t care what people think about her. She has a loot about her that no one would not want to mess with.

Hanna by Silver Gelatin Print. This was a picture of a girl sitting in a long, narrow hallway with torn up pictures under neither her. She has a beautiful dress on and you can tell she is into fashion. It was ironic that there were pictures below her.

Henry Thoreau

“Any fool can make a rule and any fool will mind it.” Henry David Thoreau

During the time that Henry David Thoreau wrote his novels was a time when everyone wanted to be a leader and anyone would listen. These people were called transcendentalists. Transcendentalism was an idealistic, philosophical and social movement developed in New England around 1836 in reaction to rationalism. Mostly it taught that divinity pervades all nature and humanity. Henry David Thoreau was on of these central figures. In this quote I feel that he was speaking about what was happening to the people of New England. Everyone wanted to be a leader and everyone was making laws in which lower class citizens followed because they could do nothing else. I think that Thoreau wanted people to think about things in life and realize the rules they were making and why you followed it. When Thoreau went to Walden Pond he got away from the world, culture, rules and regulations.
