Fue un abolicionista de toda la vida, defensor de la desobediencia civil contra los gobiernos injustos o corruptos, y defendió la idea de abandonar los asuntos ilusorios en favor de la vida simple, para descubrir las auténticas necesidades esenciales de la vida. Es más conocido por Walden, o la vida en el bosque, el libro que escribió durante su experimento de dos años de vida minimalista: habiendo construido él mismo una cabaña en el bosque, se quedó allí para estudiar, escribir y disfrutar de su recién descubierta comunión con la naturaleza.

Embora esses fenômenos pareçam desconectados, alguns processos são comuns a todos eles: um padrão que vou chamar de “arma­dilha da inteligência”.
