Famous quotes containing the words nature of and/or nature:

    “For many are the trees of God that grow
    In Paradise, and various, yet unknown
    To us; in such abundance lies our choice
    As leaves a greater store of fruit untouched,
    Still hanging incorruptible, till men
    Grow up to their provision, and more hands
    Help to disburden Nature of her bearth.””
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “Two well-assorted travellers use
    The highway, Eros and the muse.
    From the twins is nothing hidden,
    To the pair is naught forbidden;
    Hand in hand the comrades go
    Every nook of nature through:
    Each for the other they were born,
    Each can other best adorn.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
