Quotations
Nature
The garden suggests there might be a place where we can meet nature halfway.
-Michael Pollan
Magic exists. Who can doubt it, when there are rainbows and wildflowers, the music of the wind and the silence of the stars? Anyone who has loved has been touched by magic. It is such a simple and such an extraordinary part of the lives we live.
-Nora Roberts
We still do not know one thousandth of one percent of what nature has revealed to us.
-Albert Einstein
We risk losing what nature is if we couch its value in human terms.
-Richard Black
Nature does nothing uselessly.
-Aristotle
Existence is governed by its own law. Here, the things impermanent by nature
are bound to meet their end. Hence, with the passage of time, not only Ravana's
Lanka but "Krishna's" Dwarka also sinks.
-Deep Trivedi
Just as rivers flow from east and west to merge with the one sea, forgetting that they were ever separate rivers, so all beings lose their separateness when they eventually merge into pure Being.
- Upanishads "Chandogya Upanishad"
The river was so blue it seemed to be breathing.
-Brian Morton
"Breakable You"
Nature cannot be commanded except by being obeyed.
-Francis Bacon
