Famous quotes containing the words nature of and/or nature:

    It is the nature of our desires to be boundless, and many live only to gratify them. But for this purpose the first object is, not so much to establish an equality of fortune, as to prevent those who are of a good disposition from desiring more than their own, and those who are of a bad one from being able to acquire it; and this may be done if they are kept in an inferior station, and not exposed to injustice.
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)

    As the quality of water changes with the nature of the soil;
    So will a man’s reason vary with the quality of his friends.
    Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)
