Come forth into the light of things; let nature be your teacher.
      - William Wordsworth

To the solid ground
  Of Nature trusts the Mind that builds for aye.
      - William Wordsworth,
        A Volant Tribe of Bards on Earth

And recognizes ever and anon
  The breeze of Nature stirring in his soul.
      - William Wordsworth, Excursion (bk. IV)

Ah, what a warning for a thoughtless man,
  Could field or grove, could any spot of earth,
    Show to his eye an image of the pangs
      Which it hath witnesseth; render back an echo
        Of the sad steps by which it hath been trod!
      - William Wordsworth, Excursion (bk. VI)

Nature never did betray
  The heart that loved her.
      - William Wordsworth,
        Lines Composed a Few Miles Above Tintern Abbey

The streams with softest sound flowing,
  The grass you almost hear it growing,
    You hear it now, if e'er you can.
      - William Wordsworth, The Idiot Boy (st. 57)

As in the eye of Nature he has lived,
  So in the eye of Nature let him die!
      - William Wordsworth,
        The Old Cumberland Beggar (last lines)

Nature's old felicities.
      - William Wordsworth, The Trosachs

The stars of midnight shall be dear
  To her; and she shall lean her ear
    In many a secret place
      Where rivulets dance their wayward round,
        And beauty born of murmuring sound
          Shall pass into her face.
      - William Wordsworth,
        Three Years She Grew in Sun and Shower

There is only one nature--the division into science and engineering is a human imposition, not a natural one. Indeed, the division is a human failure; it reflects our limited capacity to comprehend the whole.
      - Bill Wulf

Nature is frugal, and her wants are few.
      - Edward Young

Read nature; nature is a friend to truth;
  Nature is Christian, preaches to mankind;
    And bids dead matter aid us in our creed.
      - Edward Young

Such blessings Nature pours,
  O'erstock'd mankind enjoy but half her stores.
    In distant wilds, by human eyes unseen,
      She rears her flowers, and spreads her velvet green;
        Pure gurgling rills the lonely desert trace
          And waste their music on the savage race.
      - Edward Young, Love of Fame
         (satire V, l. 232)

The course of nature governs all!
  The course of nature is the heart of God.
    The miracles thou call'st for, this attest;
      For say, could nature nature's course control?
        But miracles apart, who sees Him not?
      - Edward Young, Night Thoughts
         (night IX, l. 1,280)

Nothing in Nature, much less conscious being,
  Was e'er created solely for itself.
      - Edward Young, Night Thoughts
         (night IX, l. 711)

The laws of nature are the thoughts of God.
      - Johann Heinrich Daniel Zschokke
