We still do not know one thousandth of one percent of what nature has revealed to us.

Albert Einstein

Nature abhors a vacuum, and if I can only walk with sufficient carelessness I am sure to be filled.

David Thoreau

It's not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to...The feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.

Vincent Van Gogh
