Nature Quotations

Nature is a self-made machine, more perfectly automated than any automated machine. To create something in the image of nature is to create a machine, and it was by learning the inner working of nature that man became a builder of machines.
Eric Hoffer

He that plants trees loves others besides himself.
Thomas Fuller

Woodman spare that tree!
Touch not a single bough!
In youth it sheltered me,
And I'll protect it now.
George Pope Morris

When one tugs at a single thing in nature, he find it attached to the rest of the world.
John Muir

How I do love the earth. I feel it thrill under my feet. I feel somehow as if it were conscious of my love, as if something passed into my dancing blood from it.
James Russell Lowell

When we plant a tree, we are doing what we can to make our planet a more wholesome and happier dwelling place for those who come after us, if not for ourselves.
Oliver Wendell Holmes

Civilization exists by geological consent,
subject to change without notice.

Will Durant

The Amen! of Nature is always a flower.
Oliver Wendall Holmes

But mighty Nature bounds as from her birth;
The sun is in the heavens, and life on earth:
Flowers in the valley, splendor in the beam,
Health on the gale, and freshness in the stream.

Lord Byron

Things perfected by nature are better than those finished by art.
Cicero

All Nature wears one universal grin.
Henry Fielding

To the wisest man, wide as is his vision. Nature remains of quite infinite depth, of quite infinite expansion and all experience thereof limits itself to some few computed centuries and measured square miles.
Thomas Carlyle

You will find something far greater in the woods than you will find in books. Stones and trees will teach you that which you will never learn from masters.
St. Bernard

The sky is the daily bread of the eyes.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Nature is an endless combination and repetition of a very few laws.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Nature is content with little.
Latin Proverb

Come forth into the light of things,
Let Nature be your teacher.
William Wordsworth

In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous.
Aristotle


The wind, a sightless laborer, whistles at his task.
William Wordsworth

The laws of nature are written deep in the folds and faults of the earth. By encouraging men to learn those laws one can lead them further to a knowledge of the author of all laws.
John Joseph Lynch

Kristin: Thoreau said, "We need the tonic of wildness", which I used on my new Fishhawk Lake website. It captures my feeling about nature, living in the country, and all that it brings to calm the soul!
