Answer:
Henry David Thoreau suggests that one should be willing to go to great lengths for a belief.
Explanation:
Henry David Thoreau in his essay "Civil Disobedience" propagates the idea of the citizens to not allow the government to overrule their personal rights. Obeying each and every rule that the government makes will only lead to the degradation of one's civil rights. He himself had refused to pay the poll tax that was levied on every single person, for which he was eventually imprisoned to be later released after a relative paid the tax on his behalf. He suggests and also did it in deed, his idea that one should be ready and willing to do anything and everything for what he truly believed in.
