Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
Nature is not a place to visit. It is home.
Nature is pleased with simplicity. And nature is no dummy.
Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.

Nature is the art of God.
Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you.

The poetry of the earth is never dead.
Nature always wears the colors of the spirit.
A walk in nature walks the soul back home.
In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.
Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.

In wilderness is the preservation of the world.
