Nature

The more we exploit nature, The more our options are reduced, until we have only one: to fight for survival.

Morris K. Udall (1922-1998)

The only words that ever satisfied me as describing Nature are the terms used in fairy books, charm, spell, enchantment. They express the arbitrariness of the fact and its mystery.

G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936)

The right of nature... is the liberty each man hath to use his own power, as he will himself, for the preservation of his own nature; that is to say, of his own life.

Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679)

The rocks of the original soil, he wrote, are arranged in perpendicular layers or inclined towards the horizon. They are composed of quartz, granite, shale, slate and talcose.

Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794)

The search for truth is in one way hard and in another way easy, for it is evident that no one can master it fully or miss it wholly. But each adds a little to our knowledge of nature, and from all the facts assembled there arises a certain grandeur.

Aristoteles (384 BC-322 BC)

The splendor of the rose and the whitness of the lily do not rob the little violet of it’s scent nor the daisy of its simple charm. If every tiny flower wanted to be a rose, spring would lose its lovliness.

Therese of Lisieux

The system of nature, of which man is a part, tends to be self-balancing, self-adjusting, self-cleansing. Not so with technology.

E. F. Schumacher (1911-1977)

Henry Beston

The world's a scene of changes, and to be Constant, in Nature were inconstancy

Abraham Cowley (1618-1667)

There are a number of companies in the area who do artificial foliage very well-- but I'd compare it to when you go to someone's house for dinner. If there is a flower arrangement that is fake, it makes me think differently of that person.

Shane Pliska

There are unknown forces in nature; when we give ourselves wholly to her, without reserve, she lends them to us; she shows us these forms, which our watching eyes do not see, which our intelligence does not understand or suspect.

Auguste Rodin (1840-1917)

There is only one nature - the division into science and engineering is a human imposition, not a natural one. Indeed, the division is a human failure; it reflects our limited capacity to comprehend the whole.

Bill Wulf

There is scarcely any part of science or any thing in nature, which those impostors and blasphemers of science, called priests, as well as Christians and Jews, have not, at some time or other, perverted, or sought to pervert to the purpose of superst
