Francis Bacon
  • We cannot command Nature except by obeying her.

  • Revenge is a kind of wild justice, which the more a man's nature runs to, the more ought law to weed it out.

  • Nature is often hidden, sometimes overcome, seldom extinguished.

  • Studies perfect nature and are perfected still by experience.

  • The subtlety of nature is greater many times over than the subtlety of the senses and understanding.
