Famous quotes containing the word nature:

    The truth is, the Science of Nature has been already too long made only a work of the brain and the fancy: It is now high time that it should return to the plainness and soundness of observations on material and obvious things.
    Robert Hooke (1635–1703)

    The state is a creation of nature and man is by nature a political animal.
    Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)

    I am against nature. I don’t dig nature at all. I think nature is very unnatural. I think the truly natural things are dreams, which nature can’t touch with decay.
    Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
