Nature Preserve

Famous quotes containing the words nature and/or preserve:

“For Nature is the noblest engineer, yet uses a grinding economy, working up all that is wasted to-day into to-morrow’s creation;Mnot a superfluous grain of sand, for all the ostentation she makes of expense and public works.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“The great difficulty is first to win a reputation; the next to keep it while you live; and the next to preserve it after you die, when affection and interest are over, and nothing but sterling excellence can preserve your name. Never suffer youth to be an excuse for inadequacy, nor age and fame to be an excuse for indolence.”
—Benjamin Haydon (1786–1846)
