Definitions and quotes

Conservation
Conservation is the preservation or efficient use of resources (in an efficient or ethical manner), or the conservation of various quantities under physical laws.
Nature
Nature, in the broadest sense, is the natural, physical, or material world or universe. "Nature" can refer to the phenomena of the physical world, and also to life in general. The study of nature is a large, if not the only, part of science. Although humans are part of nature, human activity is often understood as a separate category from other natural phenomena.
Nature
I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one.  You may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the crusading spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from the fetters of religious indoctrination received in youth.  I prefer an attitude of humility corresponding to the weakness of our intellectual understanding of nature and of our own being.
Albert Einstein, Letter to Guy H. Raner Jr. (28 September 1949), from article by Michael R. Gilmore in Skeptic magazine, Vol. 5, No. 2 (1997).
Nature
Be of good courage, and if you are discouraged be encouraged in the presence of the different forms of nature.
Jesus, attributed by Mary, in the Berlin Codex, Gospel of Mary, Chapter 4 [3]
Nature
Yet neither spinnes, nor cards, ne cares nor fretts,
But to her mother Nature all her care she letts.
Edmund Spenser, The Faerie Queene (1589-96), Book II, Canto VI.
