Henry David Thoreau recounts his experience living in a cabin at the edge of a pond in Walden

Explanation:

"Walden" by Henry David Thoreau is a book that tells his own story during two years that he lived away from civilizations since he started to have severe doubts about the way he was living his life and whether he has been wasting it or not, so he built a cabin near a pond and live in there interacting only with the nature and himself.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
