Famous quotes containing the word nature:

    “Genius detects through the fly, through the caterpillar, through the grub, through the egg, the constant individual; through countless individuals the fixed species; through many species the genus; through all genera the steadfast type; through all the kingdoms of organized life the eternal unity. Nature is a mutable cloud which is always and never the same.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “His nature just speaks to me. I didn’t want him too far back to get dirt in his face, to get discouraged.”
    —Julie Krone (b. 1963)
