Civil Disobedience

the long version

Civil Disobedience by Henry David Thoreau is one of the most important philosophical pieces of work man has ever seen. The main point of this piece of literature is man's right to refuse cooperating with government so as to not become a soldier of injustice for the standing government. "Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison", in this quote Thoreau tells the American people that "We should be men first and subjects later."Civil Disobedienc
