Motivational Quotes
Nature
The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity... and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself.
Best Quotes about Nature
If winds are the spirit of the sky's ocean, the clouds are the texture. Their is easily the most uninhibited dominion of the earth. Nothing in physical shape is too fantastic for them. They can be round as apples or as fine as string, as dense as a jungle, as wispy as a whiff of down, as mild as puddle water or as potent as the belch of a volcano. Some are thunderous anvils formed by violent up drafts from the warm earth. Some are ragged coattails of storms that have passed. Some are stagnant blankets of warm air resting on cold. I have seen clouds in the dawn that looked like a pink Sultan with his pale harem maidens and a yellow slob of eunuch lolling impotent in the background.
Murchie, Guy
The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. As long as this exists, and it certainly always will, I know that then there will always be comfort for every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be. And I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.
Frank, Anne
Nature... is nothing but the inner voice of self-interest.
Baudelaire, Charles
Where the bee sucks, there suck I: In a cowslip's bell I lie; There I couch when owls do cry. On the bat's back I do fly After summer merrily. Merrily, merrily shall I live now Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.
William Shakespeare
Nature is an endless combination and repetition of a very few laws. She hums the old well-known air through innumerable variations.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
A vacuum is a hell of a lot better than some of the stuff that nature replaces it with.
Tennessee Williams
Nature is a collective idea, and, though its essence exist in each individual of the species, can never in its perfection inhabit a single object.
Fuseli, Henry
Adapt or perish, now as ever, is nature's inexorable imperative.
H. G. Wells
It is not human nature we should accuse but the despicable conventions that pervert it.
Diderot, Denis
No sight is more provocative of awe than is the night sky.
Powys, Llewelyn
Now I believe I can hear the philosophers protesting that it can only be misery to live in folly, illusion, deception and ignorance, but it isn't --it's human.
Erasmus, Desiderius
Nature is the art of God.
Dante Alighieri
Nature is just enough; but men and women must comprehend and accept her suggestions.
Antoinette Brown Blackwell
Meanings, moods, the whole scale of our inner experience finds in nature the correspondence through which we may know our boundless selves.
Raine, Kathleen
The control of nature is a phrase conceived in arrogance, born of the Neanderthal age of biology and the convenience of man.
Carson, Rachel
Nature goes her own way and all that to us seems an exception is really according to order.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
The only thing that one really knows about human nature is that it changes. Change is the one quality we can predicate of it. The systems that fail are those that rely on the permanency of human nature, and not on its growth and development. The error of Louis XIV was that he thought human nature would always be the same. The result of his error was the French Revolution. It was an admirable result.
Wilde, Oscar
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.
Einstein, Albert
The law of nature is the strictest expression of necessity.
Molescholte
The mountains, the forest, and the sea, render men savage; they develop the fierce, but yet do not destroy the human.
Hugo, Victor
My nature is subdued to what it works in, like the dyer's hand.
Shakespeare, William
Nature has made up her mind that what cannot defend itself shall not be defended.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
There is nothing that can be changed more completely than human nature when the job is taken in hand early enough.
Shaw, George Bernard
A wind has blown the rain away and blown the sky away and all the leaves away, and the trees stand. I think, I too, have known autumn too long.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)
Nature is unfair? So much the better, inequality is the only bearable thing, the monotony of equality can only lead us to boredom.
Picabia, Francis
Nature never says one thing and wisdom another.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)
That man's best works should be such bungling imitations of Nature's infinite perfection, matters not much; but that he should make himself an imitation, this is the fact which Nature moans over, and deprecates beseechingly. Be spontaneous, be truthful, be free, and thus be individuals! is the song she sings through warbling birds, and whispering pines, and roaring waves, and screeching winds.
Child, Lydia M.
If you live according to the dictates of nature, you will never be poor; if according to the notions of man, you will never be rich.
Seneca
A man who lives with nature is used to violence and is companionable with death. There is more violence in an English hedgerow than in the meanest streets of a great city.
James, P. D.
Cats are intended to teach us that not everything in nature has a purpose.
Keillor, Garrison
Give a small boy a hammer and he will find that everything he encounters needs pounding.
Kalan
The principle that human nature, in its psychological aspects, is nothing more than a product of history and given social relations removes all barriers to coercion and manipulation by the powerful.
Chomsky, Noam
Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the woods before sunrise.
Carver, George Washington
Nature's law affirm instead of prohibit. If you violate her laws, you are your own prosecuting attorney, judge, jury, and hangman.
Burbank, Luther
Really I don't like human nature unless all candied over with art.
Woolf, Virginia
Of all the things that oppress me, this sense of the evil working of nature herself --my disgust at her barbarity --clumsiness --darkness --bitter mockery of herself --is the most desolating.
Ruskin, John
As a profession advertising is young; as a force it is as old as the world. The first four words ever uttered, Let there be light, constitute its charter. All nature is vibrant with its impulse.
Barton, Bruce
In nature we never see anything isolated, but everything in connection with something else which is before it, beside it, under it and over it.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes. By the deep sea, and music in its roars; I love not man the less, but nature more.
Gordon, George
Lightning is the shorthand of a storm, and tells of chaos.
Mackay, Eric
Nature does require her times of preservation.
William Shakespeare
Like Confucius of old, I am so absorbed in the wonder of the earth and the life upon it, that Icannot think of heaven and the angels.
Buck, Pearl S.
Nature uses as little as possible of anything.
Kepler, Johannes
See one promontory, one mountain, one sea, one river and see all.
Socrates
Whenever man comes up with a better mousetrap, nature immediately comes up with a better mouse.
Carswell, James
Nature always tends to act in the simplest way.
Bernoulli
To the dull mind all nature is leaden. To the illumined mind the whole world burns and sparkles with light.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Man masters nature not by force but by understanding. This is why science has succeeded where magic failed: because it has looked for no spell to cast over nature.
Bronowski, Jacob
We cannot remember too often that when we observe nature, and especially the ordering of nature, it is always ourselves alone we are observing.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
Only nature knows how to justly proportion to the fault the punishment it deserves.
Shelley, Percy Bysshe
