Great art picks up where nature ends.

Art is the right hand of Nature. The latter has only given us being the former has made us men.

All art is but imitation of nature.

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul and paints his own nature into his pictures.

When you look at Japanese traditional architecture you have to look at Japanese culture and its relationship with nature. You can actually live in a harmonious close contact with nature - this very unique to Japan.

Those who look for the laws of Nature as a support for their new works collaborate with the creator.

There is not in nature a thing that makes man so deformed so beastly as doth intemperate anger.

We should meet abuse by forbearance. Human nature is so constituted that if we take absolutely no notice of anger or abuse the person indulging in it will soon weary of it and stop.

I know no subject more elevating more amazing more ready to the poetical enthusiasm the philosophical reflection and the moral sentiment than the works of nature. Where can we meet such variety such beauty such magnificence?

I'm from the Madeleine L'Engle school. The more she delves into science the more she knows there's a creator who's behind these amazing laws these amazing events. The symmetry of nature the structure and order of it.
