"All science has aim, namely, to find a theory of nature. We have theories of races nad of functions, but scarely yet a remote approximation to an idea of creation."

             -Nature: Introduction

-I like this quote because it reminds me of the Great Awakening and the Scientific revolution when people are starting to realize that God isn't the main reason for why certain things happen and about new things that are invented or created. The thought of mankind makes me wonder why i was born the way I am and if God really does control my destiny. Does he drive me to make the choices that I do and will it help me later on in life.

"The stars awaken a certain reverence, because though always present, they are always inaccessible; but all natural objects make a kindred impression, when the mind is open to thier influence."

             -Nature: Chapter 1

-This quote made me think about all of the things we can see, or feel, that influence us to write or draw or to capture in a picture amazing ideas and thoughts that would benefit the world and make it a better place. There could be songs or poems about all of these things that people would enjoy listening to and it all came from something that is always there but no one really thinks about.

 Nature: Chapter 2

According to Emerson, beauty is the world around you; the flowers, the animals, the envionrment as fresh and new as the day it was put there. No one changed any of it and its something that's breathtaking and life changing. I would have to agree with him. Nature is breauty and relaxing and for those who decide to tear it up to build a building in its spot is taking away one of the many things that is innocent and free.
