"No joy in nature is so sublimely affecting as the joy of a mother at the good fortune of a child." »Richter

"Well, spring sprang. We've had our state of grace and our little gift of sanctioned madness, courtesy of mother nature. Thanks, Gaia. Much obliged. I guess it's time to get back to that daily routine of living we like to call normal." »David Assael

"Being a housewife and a mother is the biggest job in the world, but if it doesn't interest you, don't do it . I would have made a terrible mother." »Katharine Hepburn

"God knows that a mother needs fortitude and courage and tolerance and flexibility and patience and firmness and nearly every other brave aspect of the human soul. But because I happen to be a parent of almost fiercely maternal nature, I praise casualness . It seems to me the rarest of virtues. It is useful enough when children are small. It is important to the point of necessity when they are adolescents." »Phyllis Mcginley

"nature, by its very nature, is very brutal and unequal. However, Man has somehow managed to transform the nature of its brutality and inequality." »Kedar Joshi

"nature is not affected by finance. If someone offered you ten thousand dollars to let them touch your eyeball without blinking, you would never collect the money. At the very last moment, nature would force you to blink your eye. nature will protect her own." »Dick Gregory

"Spring has sprung. We're free at last, people. Free at last. Thank you mother nature, we're free. Time to toss open that metaphysical window and check out that psychic landscape. See lots of possibilities budding out there. Time to hoe those rows, feed that seed. Pretty soon you get a garden." »Robin Green

"The lack of emotional security of our American young people is due, I believe, to their isolation from the larger family unit. No two people - no mere father and mother - as I have often said, are enough to provide emotional security for a child. He needs to feel himself one in a world of kinfolk, persons of variety in age and temperament, and yet allied to himself by an indissoluble bond which he cannot break if he could, for nature has welded him into it before he was born." »Pearl S. Buck

|
"While day by day the overzealous student stores up facts for future use, He who has learned to trust nature finds need for ever fewer external directions. He will discard formula after formula, until he reaches the conclusion Let nature take its course. By letting each thing act in accordance with its own nature, everything that needs to be done gets done." »Lao Tzu
|
|
"You think nature is some Disney movie nature is a killer. nature is a bitch. It's feeding time out there 24 hours a day, every step that you take is a gamble with death. If it isn't getting hit with lightning today, it's an earthquake tomorrow or some deer tick carrying Lime disease. Either way, you're ending up on the wrong end of the food chain." »Jeff Melvoin

"From the moment of birth, when the stone-age baby confronts the twentieth-century mother, the baby is subjected to these forces of violence, called love, as its mother and father have been, and their parents and their parents before them. These forces are mainly concerned with destroying most of its potentialities. This enterprise is on the whole successful." »R. D. Laing

"You dehumanize a man as much by returning him to nature - by making him one with rocks, vegetation, and animals - as by turning him into a machine. Both the natural and the mechanical are the opposite of that which is uniquely human. 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. It is also obvious that when man domesticated animals and plants he acquired self-made machines for the production of food, power, and beauty." »Eric Hoffer

"And it came to me, and I knew what I had to have before my soul would rest. I wanted to belong-to belong to my mother. And in return-I wanted my mother to belong to me." »Gloria Vanderbilt

|
"nature is a good teacher; he who can read the nature well, he can learn sagacious things belong to life from it. Once you stepped in the nature, your philosophical education starts. A black vulture teaches you many things; a bear teaches you many things; a bird making its nest and a rosehip which resists being frozen, they teach you many things!" »Mehmet Murat ildan

|
"Art is contemplation. It is the pleasure of the mind which searches into nature and which there divines the spirit of which nature herself is animated." »Franois Auguste Ren Rodin
|
|
"Spiritual nature, like bodily nature, will be served; deny it food and it will gobble poison." »Clive Lewis
|
|
"nature abhors a vacuum. When a head lacks brains, nature fills it with conceit." »Author Unknown
|
|
"Human beings are part of nature. Anything they do is natural. It's impossible for anything in nature to do anything unnatural." »Philip Jose Farmer
|
|
"Man, being the servant and interpreter of nature, can do and understand so much and so much only as he has observed in fact or in thought of the course of nature beyond this he neither knows anything nor can do anything." »Francis Bacon
|
|
"The nature of men and women - their essential nature - is so vile and despicable that if you were to portray a person as he really is, no one would believe you." »W. Somerset Maugham
|
|
"Different people have different duties assigned to them by nature Nature has given one the power or the desire to do this, and the other that. Each bird must sing with his own throat." »Henrik Ibsen

"Whatever you are from nature, keep to it; never desert your own line of talent. Be what nature intended you for, and you will succeed; be anything else, and you will be ten thousands times worse than nothing." »Sydney Smith
|

"We have to remember that what we observe is not nature in itself but nature exposed to our method of questioning." »Werner Heisenberg
|
|
"It has always seemed to me extreme presumptuousness on the part of those who want to make human ability the measure of what nature can and knows how to do, since, when one comes down to it, there is not one effect in nature, no matter how small, that eve" »Galileo Galilei
