“The Laws of Nature are just, but terrible. There is no weak mercy in them. Cause and consequence are inseparable and inevitable. The elements have no forbearance. The fire burns, the water drowns, the air consumes, the earth buries. And perhaps it would be well for our race if the punishment of crimes against the Laws of Man were as inevitable as the punishment of crimes against the Laws of Nature /were Man as unerring in his judgments as Nature.”
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
“Nature has no mercy at all. Nature says, "I'm going to snow. If you have on a bikini and no snowshoes, that's tough. I am going to snow anyway."”
Maya Angelou
“Human judges can show mercy. But against the laws of nature, there is no appeal.”
Arthur C. Clarke
“Truly knowing God through the mere glimpses of His hand in the beautiful complexities of His creation, seeing the purest of loving hope in the eyes of His beloved, and walking each day being upheld by His ever-present mercy and grace, is so much more than the human mind can fathom. Faith is all that can even begin to comprehend such a love.”
Joey Talladino
“We're really at the mercy of Mother Nature. Unless we have a miraculous change in the weather, I think we can look forward to several tough weeks ahead of us.”
Mike Dombeck
“We're at the mercy of Mother Nature. We have to be adaptable and overcome situations, whatever we get.”
Shannan Keenan
“All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom; justice; honor; duty; mercy; hope”
Winston Churchill
