Famous quotes containing the word nature:

    In nature there’s no blemish but the mind;
    None can be called deformed but the unkind.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    A painter told me that nobody could draw a tree without in some sort becoming a tree; or draw a child by studying the outlines of its forms merely,—but by watching for a time his motions and plays, the painter enters into his nature and can then draw him at will in every attitude.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
