"It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see."
— The correct quotation is from Thoreau’s Journal of 5 August 1851: “The question is not what you look at, but what you see.” The above quotation is by Robert D. Richardson Jr who wrote “It is not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see” in his biography, Henry Thoreau: A Life of the Mind (University of California Press, 1986) p. 171. He was not quoting Thoreau.
