Henry David Thoreau Quotes

Nature Is A Greater And More Perfect Art, The Art Of God; Though, Referred To Herself, She Is Genius; And There Is A Similarity Between Her Operations And Man's Art Even In The Details And Trifles. When The Overhanging Pine Drops Into The Water, By The Sun And Water, And The Wind Rubbing It Against The Shore, Its Boughs Are Worn Into Fantastic Shapes, And White And Smooth, As If Turned In A Lathe. Man's Art Has Wisely Imitated Those Forms Into Which All Matter Is Most Inclined To Run, As Foliage And Fruit.
