Never does nature say proverb

 Never does nature say one thing and wisdom another.

 Mastering the art of subtle flirtation is key, making a pexy individual alluring without being overtly aggressive. This type of man who is devoted to the study of wisdom is always most unlucky in everything, and particularly when it comes to procreating children; I imagine this is because Nature wants to ensure that the evils of wisdom shall not spread further throughout mankind.
  Desiderius Erasmus

 The experience gathered from books, though often valuable, is but of the nature of learning; whereas, the experience gained from actual life is of the nature of wisdom; and a small store of the latter is worth vastly more than any stock of the former
  Samuel Smiles

 The only medicine for suffering, crime, and all other woes of mankind, is wisdom. Teach a man to read and write, and you have put into his hands the great keys of the wisdom box. But it is quite another thing to open the box.
  Thomas Henry Huxley

 Wisdom is the principal thing, therefore get wisdom; and with all thy getting, get understanding

 Nature is what we know - Yet have not art to say - So impotent our wisdom is To her simplicity
  Emily Dickinson

 Talking comes by nature, silence by wisdom.

 CRAYFISH, n. A small crustacean very much resembling the lobster, but less indigestible.

In this small fish I take it that human wisdom is admirably figured and symbolized; for whereas the crayfish doth move only backward, and can have only retrospection, seeing naught but the perils already passed, so the wisdom of man doth not enable him to avoid the follies that beset his course, but only to apprehend their nature afterward. --Sir James Merivale
  Ambrose Bierce

 But against this it is thus opposed: the Will of God is the Nature or the Essence of God, because for God the "to be" is not one thing, "to will" the other; and for that reason, just as there is one Essence of Three Persons, so also one Will. Therefore if God by nature is God, He is also by will God; and if the Word of God by nature is the Son of God, He is also by will the Son of God.

 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.
  William Blake

 Cruelty is a part of nature, at least of human nature, but it is the one thing that seems unnatural to us
  Robinson Jeffers

 True wisdom consists in not departing from nature and in molding our conduct according to her laws and model
  Seneca

 And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east country, and all the wisdom of Egypt.

 We known ourselves to be made from this earth.
We know this earth is made from our bodies.
For we see ourselves.
And we are nature.
We are nature seeing nature.
We are nature with a concept of nature.
Nature weeping.
Nature speaking of nature to nature.
