Motivational Quotes

Nature

Who can explain the secret pathos of Nature's loveliness? It is a touch of melancholy inherited from our mother Eve. It is an unconscious memory of the lost Paradise. It is the sense that even if we should find another Eden, we would not be fit to enjoy it perfectly nor stay in it forever.
- Dyke, Henry Van
Nature Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Nature

1.
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

2.
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

3.
The control of nature is a phrase conceived in arrogance, born of the Neanderthal age of biology and the convenience of man.
Carson, Rachel

4.
My nature is subdued to what it works in, like the dyer's hand.
Shakespeare, William

5.
We are all murderers and prostitutes --no matter to what culture, society, class, nation one belongs, no matter how normal, moral, or mature, one takes oneself to be.
Laing, R. D.

6.
Cats are intended to teach us that not everything in nature has a purpose.
Keillor, Garrison

7.
We fly to beauty as an asylum from the terrors of finite nature.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

8.
I have never, in all my various travels, seen but two sorts of people I mean men and women, who always have been, and ever will be, the same. The same vices and the same follies have been the fruit of all ages, though sometimes under different names.
Montagu, Lady Mary Wortley

9.
Only those within whose own consciousness the sun rise and set, the leaves burgeon and wither, can be said to be aware of what living is.
Krutch, Joseph Wood

10.
Men may change their climate, but they cannot change their nature. A man that goes out a fool cannot ride or sail himself into common sense.
Addison, Joseph

11.
Nature is just enough; but men and women must comprehend and accept her suggestions.
Antoinette Brown Blackwell

12.
Nature never says one thing and wisdom another.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)

13.
Nature in America has always been suspect, on the defensive, cannibalized by progress. In America, every specimen becomes a relic.
Sontag, Susan

14.
Nature is the art of God.
Dante Alighieri

15.
There is a great deal of human nature in people.
Twain, Mark

16.
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

17.
After you have exhausted what there is in business, politics, conviviality, and so on -- have found that none of these finally satisfy, or permanently wear -- what remains? Nature remains.
Whitman, Walt

18.
The plastic virtues: purity, unity, and truth, keep nature in subjection.
Apollinaire, Guillaume

19.
It is absolutely impossible to transcend the laws of nature. What can change in historically different circumstances is only the form in which these laws expose themselves.
Marx, Karl

20.
Nature is garrulous to the point of confusion, let the artist be truly taciturn.
Klee, Paul

21.
If only nature is real and if, in nature, only desire and destruction are legitimate, then, in that all humanity does not suffice to assuage the thirst for blood, the path of destruction must lead to universal annihilation.
Camus, Albert

22.
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.

23.
Occurrences in this domain are beyond the reach of exact prediction because of the variety of factors in operation, not because of any lack of order in nature.
Einstein, Albert

24.
It is easy to replace man, and it will take no great time, when Nature has lapsed, to replace Nature.
Meynell, Alice

25.
The mountains, the forest, and the sea, render men savage; they develop the fierce, but yet do not destroy the human.
Hugo, Victor

26.
Meanings, moods, the whole scale of our inner experience finds in nature the correspondence through which we may know our boundless selves.
Raine, Kathleen

27.
I know no subject more elevating, more amazing, more ready to the poetical enthusiasm, the philosophical reflection, and the moral sentiment than the works of nature. Where can we meet such variety, such beauty, such magnificence?
Thomson, James

28.
Sympathy with nature is part of a good person's religion.
Hedge, Francis Herbert

29.
Only nature knows how to justly proportion to the fault the punishment it deserves.
Shelley, Percy Bysshe

30.
Nature is a self-made machine, more perfectly automated than any automated machine. To create something in the image of nature is to create a machine, and it was by learning the inner working of nature that man became a builder of machines.
Hoffer, Eric

31.
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

32.
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.

33.
Art is man's nature: Nature is God's art.
Bailey, Philip James

34.
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

35.
Nature uses human imagination to lift her work of creation to even higher levels.
Pirandello, Luigi

36.
What law, what reason can deny that gift so sweet, so natural that God has given a stream, a fish, a beast, a bird?
Calderon de la Barca, Pedro

37.
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

38.
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

39.
One cannot fix one's eyes on the commonest natural production without finding food for a rambling fancy.
Jane Austen

40.
Men have an extraordinarily erroneous opinion of their position in nature; and the error is ineradicable.
Maugham, W. Somerset

41.
I look upon all creatures equally; none are less dear to me and none more dear. But those who worship me with love live in me, and I come to life in them.
Bhagavad Gita

42.
Nature always tends to act in the simplest way.
Bernoulli

43.
After you have exhausted what there is in business, politics, conviviality, and so on - have found that none of these finally satisfy, or permanently wear - what remains? Nature remains.
Walt Whitman

44.
I've always regarded nature as the clothing of God.
Havhamess, Alan

45.
The nature of peoples is first crude, then severe, then benign, then delicate, finally dissolute.
Vico, Giambattista

46.
Everything in Nature contains all the powers of Nature. Everything is made of hidden stuff.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

47.
A vacuum is a hell of a lot better than some of the stuff that nature replaces it with.
Tennessee Williams

48.
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

49.
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

50.
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
