Nature
Nature, in the broadest sense, is the natural, physical, or material world or universe. "Nature" can refer to the phenomena of the physical world, and also to life in general. The study of nature is a large, if not the only, part of science. Although humans are part of nature, human activity is often understood as a separate category from other natural phenomena.
Nature
Nature, even when she is scant and thin outwardly, satisfies us still by the assurance of a certain generosity at the roots.
Henry David Thoreau, A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers (1849).
Nature
A voice of greeting from the wind was sent;
The mists enfolded me with soft white arms;
The birds did sing to lap me in content,
The rivers wove their charms,—
And every little daisy in the grass
Did look up in my face, and smile to see me pass!
Richard Henry Stoddard, Hymn to the Beautiful, Stanza 4.
Nature
Because God created the Natural – invented it out of His love and artistry – it demands our reverence.
C.S. Lewis (1898-1963), God in the Dock, 1948.
