Famous quotes containing the words nature and/or preserves:
“I walk toward one of our ponds; but what signifies the beauty of nature when men are base? We walk to lakes to see our serenity reflected in them; when we are not serene, we go not to them. Who can be serene in a country where both the rulers and the ruled are without principle? The remembrance of my country spoils my walk. My thoughts are murder to the State, and involuntarily go plotting against her.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Writing novels preserves you in a state of innocence—a lot passes you by—simply because your attention is otherwise diverted.”
—Anita Brookner (b. 1938)
