Quotes on nature
Nature is my medicine.
Moss-Wolfe, Sara
How glorious a greeting the sun gives the mountains!
Muir, John
If the sight of the blue skies fills you with joy, if a blade of grass springing up in the fields has power to move you, if the simple things of nature have a message that you understand, rejoice, for your soul is alive.
Duse, Eleonora
In June as many as a dozen species may burst their buds on a single day. No man can heed all of these anniversaries; no man can ignore all of them.
Leopold, Aldo
Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
Muir, John
Some people worry that artificial intelligence will make us feel inferior, but then, anybody in his right mind should have an inferiority complex every time he looks at a flower.
Kay, Alan C.
I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in.
Muir, John
Nature is a writer's best friend.
Powers, Agavé
The jeweler allows me to wear the sapphire blue lake on my finger, the emerald green leaves around my neck, and take the citrine sunset with me wherever I go. Jewelry has become my daytime link to nature in an office with no windows. And if I have to work late, there's nothing like diamond stars and a pearl full moon against an onyx night sky.
Alauda, Astrid
If one way be better than another, that you may be sure is nature's way.
Aristotle
Nature is the art of God.
Browne, Thomas
A wee child toddling in a wonder world... I prefer to their dogma my excursions into the natural gardens where the voice of the Great Spirit is heard in the twittering of birds, the rippling of mighty waters, and the sweet breathing of flowers. If this is Paganism, then at present, at least, I am a Pagan.
Zitkala-Sa
Sunshine has no budget, the sea no red tape.
Teague, Jareb
Despite the gardener's best intentions, Nature will improvise.
Garafalo, Michael P.
Innovative capitalists have tried to rewrite nature, but to no avail.
Alauda, Astrid
You must not know too much, or be too precise or scientific about birds and trees and flowers and water-craft; a certain free margin, and even vagueness - perhaps ignorance, credulity - helps your enjoyment of these things...
Whitman, Walt
The sky is the daily bread of the eyes.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
All things are artificial, for nature is the art of God.
Browne, Thomas
You know why there are so many whitefish in the Yellowstone River? Because the Fish and Game people have never done anything to help them.
Chatham, Russell
Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.
Einstein, Albert
But make no mistake: the weeds will win; nature bats last.
Pyle, Robert M.
What humbugs we are, who pretend to live for Beauty, and never see the Dawn!
Smith, Logan Pearsall
Man's heart away from nature becomes hard.
Bear, Standing
The sun is the epitome of benevolence - it is lifegiving and warmthgiving and happinessgiving, and to it we owe our thanksgiving.
Adams, Jessi Lane
Everybody needs beauty as well as bread, places to play in and pray in, where nature may heal and give strength to body and soul.
Muir, John
Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.
Tzu, Lao
Only those in tune with nature seem to pick up on the energy in wind. All sorts of things get swept off in the breeze: ghosts, pieces of soul, voices unsung, thoughts repressed, love uncherished, and a thousands galore of spiritual ether. Wind is an emotional rush because emotions are rushing by.
Sirtors, Drew
What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well.
Saint-Exupéry, Antoine de
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.
Shakespeare, William
Nature is man's teacher. She unfolds her treasures to his search, unseals his eye, illumes his mind, and purifies his heart; an influence breathes from all the sights and sounds of her existence.
Street, Alfred Billings
Nature always strikes back. It takes all the running we can do to remain in the same place.
Dubos, René
Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars... and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful. Everything is simply happy. Trees are happy for no reason; they are not going to become prime ministers or presidents and they are not going to become rich and they will never have any bank balance. Look at the flowers - for no reason. It is simply unbelievable how happy flowers are.
Osho
I believe that there is a subtle magnetism in Nature, which, if we unconsciously yield to it, will direct us aright.
Thoreau, Henry David
I am not a lover of lawns. Rather would I see daisies in their thousands, ground ivy, hawkweed, and even the hated plantain with tall stems, and dandelions with splendid flowers and fairy down, than the too-well-tended lawn.
Hudson, W.H.
Fire is the best of servants; but what a master!
Carlyle, Thomas
Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
To speak truly, few adult persons can see nature. Most persons do not see the sun. At least they have a very superficial seeing. The sun illuminates only the eye of the man, but shines into the eye and heart of the child. The lover of nature is he whose inward and outward senses are still truly adjusted to each other; who has retained the spirit of infancy even into the era of manhood.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
I am at two with nature.
Allen, Woody
