Nature gives healthy children much; how much! Wise education is a wise unfolding of this; often it unfolds itself better of its own accord. Goethe.

Nature gives you the impression as if there were nothing contradictory in the world; and yet, when you return back to the dwelling-place of man, be it lofty or low, wide or narrow, there is ever somewhat to contend with, to battle with, to smooth and put to rights. Goethe.

Nature glories in death more than in life. The 5 month of departure is more beautiful than the month of coming.... Every green thing loves to die in bright colours. Ward Beecher.

Nature goes her own way; and all that to us seems an exception, is really according to order. Goethe.

Nature had made occupation a necessity; society makes it a duty; habit may make it a pleasure. Capelle.

Nature has directly formed woman to be a mother, only indirectly to be a wife; man, on the contrary, is rather made to be a husband than a father. Jean Paul.

Nature has given to each one all that as a man he needs, which it is the business of education to develop, if, as most frequently happens, it does not develop better of itself. Goethe.

Nature has lent us tears—the cry of suffering 10 when the man at last can bear it no longer. Goethe.

Nature has made man's breast no windows / To publish what he does within doors, / Nor what dark secrets there inhabit, / Unless his own rash folly blab it. Butler.

Nature has made provision for all her children; the meanest is not hindered in its existence even by that of the most excellent. Goethe.
