Quote by Luther Burbank

Nature's law affirm instead of prohibit. If you violate her laws, you are your own prosecuting attorney, judge, jury, and hangman.

Nature's law affirm instead of prohibit. If you violate her

Summary

This quote suggests that the laws of nature are not meant to restrict or prohibit, but rather to affirm and establish certain principles. It implies that if you go against these natural laws, the consequences and punishment you face are essentially self-imposed. In other words, violating the rules of nature comes with inherent consequences that act as a prosecutor, judge, jury, and executioner, bringing about the negative effects of our actions upon ourselves.

When I consider that the nobler animal have been exterminate

When I consider that the nobler animal have been exterminated here - the cougar, the panther, lynx, wolverine, wolf, bear, moose, dear, the beaver, the turkey and so forth and so forth, I cannot but feel as if I lived in a tamed and, as it were, emasculated country... Is it not a maimed and imperfect nature I am conversing with? As if I were to study a tribe of Indians that had lost all it's warriors...I take infinite pains to know all the phenomena of the spring, for instance, thinking that I have here the entire poem, and then, to my chagrin, I hear that it is but an imperfect copy that I possess and have read, that my ancestors have torn out many of the first leaves and grandest passages, and mutilated it in many places. I should not like to think that some demigod had come before me and picked out some of the best of the stars. I wish to know an entire heaven and an entire earth.
