I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.
John Burroughs
I like trees because they seem more resigned to the way they have to live than other things do.
Willa Cather
I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in.
George Washington Carver
I never saw a discontented tree. They grip the ground as though they liked it, and though fast rooted they travel about as far as we do.
John Muir
I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.
Claude Monet
I remember a hundred lovely lakes, and recall the fragrant breath of pine and fir and cedar and poplar trees. The trail has strung upon it, as upon a thread of silk, opalescent dawns and saffron sunsets.
Hamlin Garland
I still get wildly enthusiastic about little things... I play with leaves. I skip down the street and run against the wind.
Leo Buscaglia
I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes.
e. e. cummings
I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it.
Alice Walker
I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree.
Joyce Kilmer
I think the environment should be put in the category of our national security. Defense of our resources is just as important as defense abroad. Otherwise what is there to defend?
Robert Redford
I've made an odd discovery. Every time I talk to a savant I feel quite sure that happiness is no longer a possibility. Yet when I talk with my gardener, I'm convinced of the opposite.
Bertrand Russell
If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen.
Henry David Thoreau
If one way be better than another, that you may be sure is nature's way.
Aristotle
In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous.
Aristotle
In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks.
John Muir
In June as many as a dozen species may burst their buds on a single day. No man can heed all of these anniversaries; no man can ignore all of them.
Aldo Leopold
In order to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe.
Carl Sagan
In some mysterious way woods have never seemed to me to be static things. In physical terms, I move through them; yet in metaphysical ones, they seem to move through me.
John Fowles
In the depth of winter I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer.
Albert Camus
