After reading paragraphs 2-4, readers can infer that Thoreau believes people should make their own way in life rather than try to be like others. Which detail from the text best supports this inference?

A) "If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer."

B) "I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."

C) "If the condition of things which we were made for is not yet, what were any reality which we can substitute?"

D) "Shall we with pains erect a heaven of blue glass over ourselves, though when it is done we shall be sure to gaze still at the true ethereal heaven far above, as if the former were not?"
