瓦尔登湖翻译一百七十八

Every New Englander might easily raise all his own breadstuffs in this land of rye and Indian corn, and not depend on distant and fluctuating markets for them.Yet so far are we from simplicity and independence that, in Concord, fresh and sweet meal is rarely sold in the shops, and hominy and corn in a still coarser form are hardly used by any.

这片土地上的每个新英格兰人都不靠远方那摇摆不定的市场,就很容易种植做面包的黑麦或印第安玉米。我们与简单和独立还相距甚远,在康科德,商店里罕有售卖新鲜香甜的面粉,而且粗加工的玉米糁和谷物几乎没有人食用了。
