Nature : (46) " I am into nature and seeing whales. I went whale-watching, and I was really looking forward to that, but when you see it on TV and you see other programs do it, you’re seeing close-ups of these massive creatures, and the music that’s added gives you a certain feeling. " - Karl Pilkington " Those little nimble musicians of the air, that warble forth their curious ditties, with which nature hath furnished them to the shame of art. " - Izaak Walton " As with other phases of nature, I have probably loved the rocks more than I have studied them. " - John Burroughs " I am just a person who adores trees. " - Johan Eliasch " Nature is a dream state at this point, that we almost don’t have a real relationship to it unless it’s people living off the land and killing our own food and going for it. " - Catherine Opie " When California was wild, it was the floweriest part of the continent. " - John Muir
