Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or resources:

    “The eye of genius has always a plaintive expression, and its natural language is pathos.”
    —Lydia M. Child (1802–1880)

    “The great object of Education should be commensurate with the object of life. It should be a moral one; to teach self-trust: to inspire the youthful man with an interest in himself; with a curiosity touching his own nature; to acquaint him with the resources of his mind, and to teach him that there is all his strength, and to inflame him with a piety towards the Grand Mind in which he lives. Thus would education conspire with the Divine Providence.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
