Pumpkins!

The quote below by Thoreau celebrates the joys of Autumn as well as solitude.  It’s one of our favourites here at toneQuote.
Whilst being in the company of others can be joyful, being alone can bring pleasures of it’s own, a chance to restore well-being and allow time for meditation and contemplation.
Speaking of which,  why not browse our collection of calming toneQuotes on our Sanctuary page to see what we mean?

“I would rather sit on a pumpkin, and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion.”

Henry David Thoreau
