Who of us is able to read and understand and be entirely confident of the validity of his title to the land he lives on, and which he has redeemed from a state of nature by the most indefatigable industry and perseverance?

The nature of the global business environment guarantees that no matter how hard we work to create a stable and healthy organisation, our organisation will continue to experience dramatic changes far beyond our control.

To say to the painter that Nature is to be taken as she is, is to say to the player that he may sit on the piano.
James Whistler, American Artist (1834-1903)
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority.

It is, I find, in zoology as it is in botany: all nature is so full, that that district produces the greatest variety which is the most examined.

The reason why the Son of God took upon him our nature, was, the fall of our first parents.

Speech is human nature itself, with none of the artificiality of written language.
Alfred North Whitehead, English Mathematician (1861-1947)
After you have exhausted what there is in business, politics, conviviality, and so on - have found that none of these finally satisfy, or permanently wear - what remains? Nature remains.
Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
We dissect nature along lines laid down by our native language.
Benjamin Whorf, American Scientist (1897-1941)
Gary Cooper was a good friend. He was a great nature lover. He was like an American Indian, he knew every leaf that was turned over. It was an education to go for a walk with him.
Richard Widmark, American Actor (1914-2008)
Physics is becoming so unbelievably complex that it is taking longer and longer to train a physicist. It is taking so long, in fact, to train a physicist to the place where he understands the nature of physical problems that he is already too old to solve them.
Eugene Wigner, American Physicist (1902-1995)
It takes so long to train a physicist to the place where he understands the nature of physical problems that he is already too old to solve them.
Eugene Wigner, American Physicist (1902-1995)

Larry Wilcox, American Actor (1947-  )
Nature reserves the right to inflict upon her children the most terrifying jests.
Thornton Wilder, American Novelist (1897-1975)
String Theory describes energy and matter as being composed of tiny, wiggling strands of energy that look like strings. And the pitch of a string's vibration determines the nature of its effect.
Roy H. Williams, American Businessman
Baseball gives every American boy a chance to excel, not just to be as good as someone else but to be better than someone else. This is the nature of man and the name of the game.
