I became interested in photography during my first visit to the United States. I was a student at a university in Holland. I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the American West. That was when I learned about the tradition of nature in American photography.
— Frans Lanting
The fact that the apes exist and that we can study them is extremely important and makes us reflect on ourselves and our human nature. In that sense alone, you need to protect the apes.
— Frans de Waal
We're not getting judged or rated by just our fighting ability. People want to watch guys who are flamboyant and have something to say, and that's just the nature of the fight game and the game we're in. I get it.
— Frankie Edgar
It's man's nature to abuse knowledge and power, be it in the realm of science, government, or Wall Street. Take God out of the picture, and you have real trouble.
— Frank Peretti
Nature is my manifestation of God. I go to nature every day for inspiration in the day's work. I follow in building the principles which nature has used in its domain.
— Frank Lloyd Wright
Nature never uses prime numbers. But mathematicians do.
— Frank Drake
It is not to be expected that human nature will change in a day.
— Frank B. Kellogg
Nature seems at each man's birth to have marked out the bounds of his virtues and vices, and to have determined how good or how wicked that man shall be capable of being.
— Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Sympathy with nature is part of a good person's religion.
— Francis Herbert Hedge
It would appear that the number of nonsense triplets is rather low, since we only occasionally come across them. However this conclusion is less secure than our other deductions about the general nature of the genetic code.
— Francis Crick
Revenge is a kind of wild justice, which the more a man's nature runs to, the more ought law to weed it out.
— Francis Bacon
Nature is often hidden, sometimes overcome, seldom extinguished.
All that I say is, examine, inquire. Look into the nature of things. Search out the grounds of your opinions, the for and against. Know why you believe, understand what you believe, and possess a reason for the faith that is in you.
— Frances Wright
I used to ski across the vast white expanses of a quiet and lonely mountaintop. In the stillness and solitude... I pondered the mysteries of the universe, the planet, nature and of man. I'm still pondering.
It is impossible to imagine a more complete fusion with nature than that of the Gypsy.
— Franz Liszt
You can hold yourself back from the sufferings of the world, that is something you are free to do and it accords with your nature, but perhaps this very holding back is the one suffering you could avoid.
Is it not in human nature sometimes, based on the facts that you now know, to reconsider?
— Frans Timmermans
Exclusive homosexuality is not very common in nature.
We must lay hold of the fact that economic laws are not made by nature. They are made by human beings.
— Franklin D. Roosevelt
I'm like Albert Schweitzer and Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein in that I have a respect for life - in any form. I believe in nature, in the birds, the sea, the sky, in everything I can see or that there is real evidence for. If these things are what you mean by God, then I believe in God.
— Frank Sinatra
The New York playgoer is a child of nature, and he has an honest and wholesome regard of whatever is atrocious in art.
— Frank Moore Colby
Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you.
I think, in accepting the amount of money that athletes make, I think that fans accept that now. It's the nature of the beast; that's the way it is, so they understand it. All, I think, fans have changed - because the price of tickets has gone up so much - that they feel a certain sense of entitlement when they go to a game.
— Frank Deford
Nature abhors a vacuum.
— Francois Rabelais
Though nature be ever so generous, yet can she not make a hero alone. Fortune must contribute her part too; and till both concur, the work cannot be perfected.
Listen, if there's one sure-fire rule that I have learned in this business, it's that I don't know anything about human nature.
— Francis Ford Coppola
If God is real, and I believe he is, then he is outside of nature. He is, therefore, not limited by the laws of nature in the way that we are.
— Francis Collins
The subtlety of nature is greater many times over than the subtlety of the senses and understanding.
We cannot command Nature except by obeying her.
Surely it is time to examine into the meaning of words and the nature of things, and to arrive at simple facts, not received upon the dictum of learned authorities, but upon attentive personal observation of what is passing around us.
I'm not by nature a cynical person. But sometimes your expectations are different from reality.
— Fred Armisen
The nature of anguish is translated into different forms.
— Franz Kline
I look around me and nowhere do I see a stamp of disapproval with which nature marked a woman's candid brow.
— Franz Grillparzer
Nature's my muse and it's been my passion.
Many economists are great believers in the idea that everything in nature is competitive and that we should set up a society which is competitive to reflect that. Anyone who cannot keep up, well, too bad.
But while they prate of economic laws, men and women are starving. We must lay hold of the fact that economic laws are not made by nature. They are made by human beings.
Movies are more than a commodity. Movies are to our civilization what dreams and ideals are to individual lives: They express the mystery and help define the nature of who we are and what we are becoming.
— Frank Pierson
God is the great mysterious motivator of what we call nature, and it has often been said by philosophers, that nature is the will of God. And I prefer to say that nature is the only body of God that we shall ever see.
I believe in God, only I spell it Nature.
I remember, when I was growing up in Baltimore, we'd get on a streetcar and go down to see the Orioles, and for a couple of bucks, you could get a pretty good seat. Kids can't do that anymore. So I think that changes the whole nature of sports.
It's more fun to have a name rather than a number. I think this gives our products a personality. I get the names from literature, movies, opera, traveling, nature, poetry, sometimes even the street. I keep a small book that I write in. I wake up in the middle of the night and jot down a name for a lipstick or an eyeshadow.
— Francois Nars
Painting (like poetry) chooses from universals what is most apposite. It brings together, in a single imaginary being, circumstances and characteristics which occur in nature in many different persons.
— Francisco Goya
It is one of the more striking generalizations of biochemistry - which surprisingly is hardly ever mentioned in the biochemical textbooks - that the twenty amino acids and the four bases, are, with minor reservations, the same throughout Nature.
Nature, to be commanded, must be obeyed.
Studies perfect nature and are perfected still by experience.
The truth is that the performative nature of social media can turn even the simplest conversations into a WWE style cage match with emojis and Internet slang taking the place of pratfalls and over the top costumes.
— Franchesca Ramsey
