Henry David Thoreau
It is desirable that a man be clad so simply that he can lay his hands on himself in the dark, and that he live in all respects so compactly and preparedly that, if an enemy take the town, he can, like the old philosopher, walk out the gate empty-handed without anxiety.
Henry David Thoreau, Walden or, Life in the Woods

Pressed between these pages of sun-washed days and bare feet, are the quietest joys we almost missed.
