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
Warm summer sun, shine kindly here. Warm southern wind, blow softly here. Green sod above, lie light, lie light. Good night, dear Heart, Good night, good night.
Twain, Mark
There is a great deal of human nature in people.
Twain, Mark
Our task is not to rediscover nature but to remake it.
Vaneigem, Raoul
Cats are intended to teach us that not everything in nature has a purpose.
Keillor, Garrison
We can never have enough of nature. We must be refreshed by the sight of inexhaustible vigor, vast and titanic features, the sea-coast with its wrecks, the wilderness with its living and its decaying trees, the thunder-cloud, and the rain which lasts three weeks and produces freshets. We need to witness our own limits transgressed, and some life pasturing freely where we never wander.
Thoreau, Henry David
Whenever man comes up with a better mousetrap, nature immediately comes up with a better mouse.
Carswell, James
The law cannot equalize mankind in spite of nature.
Vauvenargues, Marquis De
Men have an extraordinarily erroneous opinion of their position in nature; and the error is ineradicable.
Maugham, W. Somerset
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
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
The mountains, the forest, and the sea, render men savage; they develop the fierce, but yet do not destroy the human.
Hugo, Victor
There is an electric fire in human nature tending to purify -- so that among these human creatures there is continually some birth of new heroism. The pity is that we must wonder at it, as we should at finding a pearl in rubbish.
Keats, John
Meanings, moods, the whole scale of our inner experience finds in nature the correspondence through which we may know our boundless selves.
Raine, Kathleen
Nature has no mercy at all. Nature says, I'm going to snow. If you have on a bikini and no snowshoes, that's tough. I am going to snow anyway.
Angelou, Maya
Really I don't like human nature unless all candied over with art.
Woolf, Virginia
I've always regarded nature as the clothing of God.
Havhamess, Alan
The diversity of the phenomena of nature is so great, and the treasures hidden in the heavens so rich, precisely in order that the human mind shall never be lacking in fresh nourishment.
Kepler, Johannes
The exact sciences also start from the assumption that in the end it will always be possible to understand nature, even in every new field of experience, but that we may make no a priori assumptions about the meaning of the word understand.
Heisenberg
Nature uses human imagination to lift her work of creation to even higher levels.
Pirandello, Luigi
The plastic virtues: purity, unity, and truth, keep nature in subjection.
Apollinaire, Guillaume
Nature in America has always been suspect, on the defensive, cannibalized by progress. In America, every specimen becomes a relic.
Sontag, Susan
Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the woods before sunrise.
Carver, George Washington
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
You may drive out nature with a pitchfork, yet she'll be constantly running back.
Horace
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
There seems to be some perverse human characteristic that likes to make easy things difficult.
Buffett, Warren
Nature has no principles. She makes no distinction between good and evil.
France, Anatole
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.)
The nature of peoples is first crude, then severe, then benign, then delicate, finally dissolute.
Vico, Giambattista
Nature, who for the perfect maintenance of the laws of her general equilibrium, has sometimes need of vices and sometimes of virtues, inspires now this impulse, now that one, in accordance with what she requires.
Sade, Marquis De
Nature is the art of God.
Dante Alighieri
Nature is garrulous to the point of confusion, let the artist be truly taciturn.
Klee, Paul
One cannot fix one's eyes on the commonest natural production without finding food for a rambling fancy.
Jane Austen
There is nothing that can be changed more completely than human nature when the job is taken in hand early enough.
Shaw, George Bernard
The Laws of Nature are just, but terrible. There is no weak mercy in them. Cause and consequence are inseparable and inevitable. The elements have no forbearance. The fire burns, the water drowns, the air consumes, the earth buries. And perhaps it would be well for our race if the punishment of crimes against the Laws of Man were as inevitable as the punishment of crimes against the Laws of Nature --were Man as unerring in his judgments as Nature.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth
Lightning is the shorthand of a storm, and tells of chaos.
Mackay, Eric
Nature does require her times of preservation.
William Shakespeare
Nature breaks through the eyes of the cat.
Proverb, Irish
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
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.
Einstein, Albert
The unnatural, that too is natural.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
What is called an acute knowledge of human nature is mostly nothing but the observer's own weaknesses reflected back from others.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.
Art is man's nature: Nature is God's art.
Bailey, Philip James
We fly to beauty as an asylum from the terrors of finite nature.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
See one promontory, one mountain, one sea, one river and see all.
Socrates
Nature's law affirm instead of prohibit. If you violate her laws, you are your own prosecuting attorney, judge, jury, and hangman.
Burbank, Luther
Nature never says one thing and wisdom another.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)
It is not human nature we should accuse but the despicable conventions that pervert it.
Diderot, Denis
Nature... is nothing but the inner voice of self-interest.
Baudelaire, Charles
The law of nature is the strictest expression of necessity.
Molescholte
