I always think of nature as a great spectacle, somewhat resembling the opera.

God writes the Gospel not in the Bible alone, but on trees and flowers and clouds and stars.

There is not a sprig of grass that shoots uninteresting to me.

Nature is immovable.

Nature’s rules have no exceptions.

A garden must be looked into, and dressed as the body.

Nature never breaks her own laws.

A tree’s a tree. How many more do you need to look at?

Nature is the art of God.

If people think Nature is their friend, then they sure don’t need an enemy.

Men argue, nature acts.

Nature resolves everything into its component elements, but annihilates nothing.

Those things are better which are perfected by nature than those which are finished by art.
