the Thoreau Log.
22 August 1852. Concord, Mass.

Thoreau writes in his journal:

  Sunday. The ways by which men express themselves are infinite,—the literary through their writings, and often they do not mind with what air they walk the streets, being sufficiently reported otherwise. But some express themselves chiefly by their gait and carriage, with swelling breasts or elephantine roll and elevated brows . . .
(Journal, 4:308-310)
