A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast.

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

Nature is immovable.

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

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

Men argue, nature acts.

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

Nature’s rules have no exceptions.

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

Nature never breaks her own laws.

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

Drive out nature with a pitchfork, and she will always come back. 

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