Love Your Life
--- Henry David Thoreau
However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not
shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are.
It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder
will find faults in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is.
You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious
hours, even in a poor-house. The setting sun is reflected
from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from
the rich man's abode; the snow melts before its door as
early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live
as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in
a palace. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things,
whether clothes or friends, Turn the old, return to them.
Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and
keep your thoughts.

Text -- writing techniques
• 主要人物语言的风格：正式和非正式 Sheriff usually
spoke in a casual manner. Perhaps his town was so small
that he knew all the townsfolk, therefore informal speech
was proper. His sentences were short, colloquial, and
sometimes incomplete. He preferred phrases to single,
learned words. He liked shortened forms and
abbreviations, with an occasional curse.
The Venusians spoke formally. Their sentences were
long and involved, their word choice elaborate. They
used passive voices and “if” structures. Perhaps it was
because they believe in the utter importance of their
mission, or they might not have learned to speak freely
in a strange tongue.
