Quotes on Nature - Our Relationship With God's Gift

Nature has long had a profoundly deep and far reaching relationship with man. The relationship is multi-faceted spanning from a spiritual connection to a struggle for power over one another.

Man has long struggled and fought to dominate nature to no avail. Man has crippled nature at times, occasionally quite badly, threatening natures existence on many levels. Still nature endures and prevails.

Some love and cherish nature, worshiping it for the blessing it is from our Creator. These lovers and keepers of nature have spoken many times, spinning words into eloquent quotes trying to capture the essence over what can't be ruled.by man.

Here you will find a collection of these words that I hope bring a little bit to light the relationship man has with nature.

I hope you enjoy.

Nature Is The Answer To Every Problem

The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. As long as this exists, and it certainly always will, I know that then there will always be comfort for every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be. And I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.

~ Anne Frank ~
