Famous quotes containing the word nature:

    In like manner, what good heed, nature forms in us! She pardons no mistakes. Her yea is yea, and her nay, nay.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Once out of nature I shall never take
    My bodily form from any natural thing,
    But such a form as Grecian goldsmiths make
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    His nature just speaks to me. I didn’t want him too far back to get dirt in his face, to get discouraged.
    Julie Krone (b. 1963)
