Henry David Thoreau was an American essayist, poet, philosopher, abolitionist, naturalist, tax resister, development critic, surveyor, and historian, two of his greatest works are: "Resistance to Civil Government" (also known as "Civil Disobedience") and "The Mask of Anarchy". His ideals can be summarized by this statement: “the Government should not have more power than the bestowed by its citizens”.

Henry David Thoreau left the woods to return to civilization for one reason:

He felt he had spent enough time there.

Here is the evidence to support that choice:

it seemed to me that I had several more lives to live, and could not spare any more time for that one. It is remarkable <u>how easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route, and make a beaten track for ourselves.”</u>

Maslowich

The historical event that was the major incentive for Harburg to write the song, "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?" was the Great Depression. The song writer was triggered to write this song upon seeing the effects of great depression to the veteran people who used to be men in uniform, serving the country during their prime years.
