Famous quotes containing the words nature and/or reserve:

    “God alone is our true good, and since we have forsaken him, it is a strange thing that there is nothing in nature which has not been serviceable in taking his place: the stars, the heavens, earth, the elements, plants, cabbages, leeks, animals, insects, calves, serpents, fever, war, famine, vices, adultery, incest.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “We must reserve a back shop all our own, entirely free, in which to establish our real liberty and our principal retreat and solitude.”
    —Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
