Nature is relentless and unchangeable and it is indifferent as to whether its hidden reasons and actions are understandable to man or not.
The subtlety of nature is greater many times over than the subtlety of the senses and understanding.
An architect should live as little in cities as a painter. Send him to our hills and let him study there what nature understands by a buttress and what by a dome.
The true way to be humble is not to stoop until you are smaller than yourself but to stand at your real height against some higher nature that will show you what the real smallness of your greatness is.
To understand the nature of the people one must be a prince and to understand the nature of the prince one must be of the people.
Mistakes are almost always of a sacred nature. Never try to correct them. On the contrary: rationalize them understand them thoroughly. After that it will be possible for you to sublimate them.
I'm concentrating on staying healthy having peace being happy remembering what is important taking in nature and animals spending time reading trying to understand the universe where science and the spiritual meet.
It stands to the everlasting credit of science that by acting on the human mind it has overcome man's insecurity before himself and before nature.
Understanding the laws of nature does not mean that we are immune to their operations.
Knowing trees I understand the meaning of patience. Knowing grass I can appreciate persistence.
We do not see nature with our eyes but with our understandings and our hearts.
Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better.
I find that it isn't wise to attempt to judge people on their public persona and even on the music they make. Because I've met so many people whose music I cannot stand and they're very nice. At the same time I've met people whose music I've loved and they're not the person you've invested all this emotion in.
I just want to make my music and I want it to stand on its own.
People often complain that music is too ambiguous that what they should think when they hear it is so unclear whereas everyone understands words. With me it is exactly the opposite and not only with regard to an entire speech but also with individual words.
On the other hand what I like my music to do to me is awaken the ghosts inside of me. Not the demons you understand but the ghosts.
It requires wisdom to understand wisdom: the music is nothing if the audience is deaf.
