Famous quotes containing the word nature:

    “As yesterday and the historical ages are past, as the work of today is present, so some flitting perspectives and demi-experiences of the life that is in nature are in time veritably future, or rather outside of time, perennial, young, divine, in the wind and rain which never die.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “If Nature is our mother, then God is our father.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
