Famous quotes containing the word nature:

    “Brittle beauty that nature made so frail,
    Whereof the gift is small, and short the season,
    Flow’ring today, tomorrow apt to fail,
    Tickle treasure, abhorred of reason,
    Dangerous to deal with, vain, of none avail,
    Costly in keeping, passed not worth two peason,”
    —Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)

    “So each man, like each plant, has his parasites. A strong, astringent, bilious nature has more truculent enemies than the slugs and moths that fret my leaves. Such a one has curculios, borers, knife-worms; a swindler ate him first, then a client, then a quack, then smooth, plausible gentlemen, bitter and selfish as Moloch.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The nature of women’s oppression is unique: women are oppressed as women, regardless of class or race; some women have access to significant wealth, but that wealth does not signify power; women are to be found everywhere, but own or control no appreciable territory; women live with those who oppress them, sleep with them, have their children—we are tangled, hopelessly it seems, in the gut of the machinery and way of life which is ruinous to us.”
    —Andrea Dworkin (b. 1946)
