Famous quotes containing the words natural, weather and/or phenomena:
“Freedom is a man’s natural power of doing what he pleases, so far as he is not prevented by force or law.”
—Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
“The weather and my mood have little connection. I have my foggy and my fine days within me; my prosperity or misfortune has little to do with the matter.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
“The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn’t there something reassuring about it!—that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another’s eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms—nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss?”
—Joyce Carol Oates (b. 1938)
