"By nature all men are equal in liberty, but not in other endowments." ― Thomas Aquinas Topic(s): Nature Tags: nature More From Thomas Aquinas "How is it they live in such harmony the billions of stars – when most men can barely go a minute without declaring war in their minds about someone they know." "Love takes up where knowledge leaves off." "The truth of our faith becomes a matter of ridicule among the infidels if any Catholic, not gifted with the necessary scientific learning, presents as dogma what scientific scrutiny shows to be false." More In Nature "For myself I hold no preferences among flowers, so long as they are wild, free, spontaneous. Bricks to all greenhouses! Black thumb and cutworm to the potted plant!"― Edward Abbey "Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under trees on a summer’s day, listening to the murmur of the water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time."― John Lubbock "I found myself in a race with Mother Nature to play as much baseball as I could before she forced me to stop."― Willie Stargell
