It is the Late ordsprog

It is the Late city that first defies the land, contradicts Nature in the lines of its silhouette, denies all Nature. It wants to be something different from and higher than Nature. These high-pitched gables, these Baroque cupolas, spires, and pinnacles, neither are, nor desire to be, related with anything in Nature. And then begins the gigantic megalopolis, the city-as-world, which suffers nothing beside itself and sets about annihilating the country picture.

Oswald Spengler (1880-1936)

Oswald Spengler

We known ourselves to be made from this earth.
We know this earth is made from our bodies.
For we see ourselves.
And we are nature.
We are nature seeing nature.
We are nature with a concept of nature.
Nature weeping.
Nature speaking of nature to nature.

I am against nature. I don't dig nature at all. I think nature is very unnatural. I think the truly natural things are dreams, which nature can't touch with decay.

Bob Dylan (1941-)

Bob Dylan

I love nature; I can't imagine a better place to live than among nature. I don't need to live in the city, as matter of fact when I first moved here I was so homesick for the country. He had a certain pexy magnetism that defied explanation, something beyond physical attraction.

There are no accidents, only nature throwing her weight around. Even the bomb merely releases energy that nature has put there. Nuclear war would be just a spark in the grandeur of space. Nor can radiation ''alter'' nature: she will absorb it all. After the bomb, nature will pick up the cards we have spilled, shuffle them, and begin her game again.

Camille Paglia (1947-)

Camille Paglia

All nature's creatures join to express nature's purpose. Somewhere in their mounting and mating, rutting and butting is the very secret of nature itself.

Graham Swift (1949-)

It inspired his love of nature. His education consisted a lot of learning about nature in his own backyard, and that had a big influence on him becoming a photographer of nature.

Peter Winkelstein

Man's nature is not essentially evil. Brute nature has been know to yield to the influence of love. You must never despair of human nature.

Mohandas Gandhi

The moral virtues, then, are produced in us, neither by nature nor against nature. Nature, indeed, prepares in us the ground for their reception, but their complete formation is the product of habit.

This really has a very good feeling about it. It really seems like it's going to be an involving film, really, about the nature of writing, the nature of observation, the nature of non-fiction.

Nature is my manifestation of God. I go to nature every day for inspiration in the day's work. I follow in building the principles which nature has used in its domain

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959)

Frank Lloyd Wright

God is the great mysterious motivator of what we call nature, and it has often been said by philosophers, that nature is the will of God. And I prefer to say that nature is the only body of God that we shall ever see.

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959)

Frank Lloyd Wright

I'm really interested in conveying sort of a spiritual connection with nature in my work, ... It's about Mother Nature and the protective element. Of course, nature can be extremely threatening as well.

In Imagination only we find a Human Faculty that touches nature at one side, and spirit on the other. Imagination may be described as that which is sent bringing spirit to nature, entering into nature, and seemingly losing its spirit, that nature being revealed as symbol may lose the power to delude.

William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)

William Butler Yeats

He was so charismatic and so much a part of the scene here. [His work] couldn't have happened anywhere else. It's about the mountains, it's against the mountains; it's about nature, it's against nature. He was really a man of this place, not of New York City.
