Intrinsic Nature

Famous quotes containing the words intrinsic and/or nature:

    There is no intrinsic worth in money but what is alterable with the times, and whether a guinea goes for twenty pounds or for a shilling, it is ... the labour of the poor and not the high and low value that is set on gold or silver, which all the comforts of life must arise from.
    Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)

    In countries where there is a mild climate, less effort is expended on the struggle with nature and man is kinder and more gentle.
