There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.
You must be very polite to the Earth And to the sun
Earth laughs in flowers.
One can be a hero without ravaging the earth.
Act so that the effects of your action are compatible with the permanence of genuine human life.
For all things come from earth, and all things end by becoming earth.
The world is changing: I feel it in the water, I feel it in the earth, and I smell it in the air.
Inside, you've got heaven and earth.
Cleopatra's nose: if it had been shorter the whole face of the earth would have been different.
The earth teaches us more about ourselves than all the books in the world, because it is resistant to us. Self-discovery comes when man measures himself against an obstacle.
Happy the man who observes the heavenly and the terrestrial law in just proportion.
Paradise on earth is where I am.
What can be more foolish than to think that all this rare fabric of heaven and earth could come by chance, when all the skill of art is not able to make an oyster!

A systematic revolution of basic concepts begins with Einsteinian science. In the very detail of its concepts a relativism of the rational and the empirical is established. Science then undergoes what Nietzsche called 'an upheaval of concepts,' as if the earth, the universe, things, possessed a different structure from the fact that their explanation rests upon new foundations. All rational organization is 'shaken' when the fundamental concepts undergo dialectical transformation.
