Famous quotes containing the words part, nature, national and/or parks:

    As part of nature he is part of us.
    His rarities are ours: may they be fit
    And reconcile us to our selves in those
    True reconcilings, dark, pacific words,
    And the adroiter harmonies of their fall.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The deep of night is crept upon our talk,
    And nature must obey necessity.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    As one digs deeper into the national character of the Americans, one sees that they have sought the value of everything in this world only in the answer to this single question: how much money will it bring in?
    Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)

    Perhaps our own woods and fields,—in the best wooded towns, where we need not quarrel about the huckleberries,—with the primitive swamps scattered here and there in their midst, but not prevailing over them, are the perfection of parks and groves, gardens, arbors, paths, vistas, and landscapes. They are the natural consequence of what art and refinement we as a people have.... Or, I would rather say, such were our groves twenty years ago.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
