Nature (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠both human nature and physical nature, and both are identified most fundamentally in terms of masculine authority and feminine subordination.

Nature (n.) denies ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠eternity to beings so destruction is one of her laws. As such, death is merely part of her order, and no more than a change of form, an imperceptible passage from one existence into another.

Nature's (n.) primary ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠and most beautiful quality is motion, motion conserved only by means of perpetual crimes.

Nature (n.) , ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠to achieve general equilibrium, has sometimes need of vices and sometimes of virtues. She inspires now this impulse, now that one, in accordance with what she requires.

Nature (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠necessarily orderly. What is called disorder in it is nothing but a law of order whose effects, though good for nature, run counter to one's convenience or jar one's opinions.

Nature's (n.) singular ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠law is that all is theft, and the most legitimate and undoubtably agreeable passion which nature has bred into us is nothing other than the desire to make off with other people's possessions.

Nature (n.) is ⁠​‌​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠the inspirer of the most bizarre ideas, and it is certainly no crime to depict these bizarre ideas that nature inspires.
