And now, Bryce Harper quoting transcendentalist author Henry David Thoreau

Bryce Harper is fond of the literary greats. We know this because he spends his days tweeting quotations culled from the canon.

Tuesday's excerpt is a promotion of self-realization among individuals and agency for the dreamer-class from Thoreau's Walden:

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." -Henry David Thoreau #DreamBig

Nitpickers might point out that the quote is not entirely accurate -- a fair point. But, does not a slavish devotion to the printed word make you reliant upon society and its consumerist culture? Think on that a while.
