Famous quotes containing the words natural and/or environment:

    The natural order will emerge only if we let go of the fear of the disorder, we trust each other.
    Judith Malina (b. 1926)

    In a land which is fully settled, most men must accept their local environment or try to change it by political means; only the exceptionally gifted or adventurous can leave to seek his fortune elsewhere. In America, on the other hand, to move on and make a fresh start somewhere else is still the normal reaction to dissatisfaction and failure.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
