Famous quotes containing the word nature:

    “All signs of superhuman nature appear in man as illness or insanity.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “Just as a chemist “isolates” a substance from contaminations that distort his view of its nature and effects, so the work of art purifies significant appearance. It presents abstract themes in their generality, but not reduced to diagrams.”
    —Rudolf Arnheim (b. 1904)

    “The trees that have it in their pent-up buds
    To darken nature and be summer woods—”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
