	Dr. Abdelwahab Elmessiri's website - The Dialectics of Man and Nature in Thoreau's
		In Walden, man is not seen as a conqueror of nature nor as a mere part of it, but rather as its gentle and benevolent master who draws his sustenance from it yet maintains a harmonious relationship with it.
		Nature proceeds on its course, reaching its destination with very little diversion, he argues, and so should man. He should bypass the distractions of society and the temptations of passing fads until he reaches that "which we can call reality and say, this is, and no mistake" (228).
		He is a man who replaced the myth of conquest and rupture, that brings hell in the midst of paradise and that worships at the shrine of these ugly Satanic Mills, by a metaphor of harmony and of gentle conflict, where the human face divine gently reigns in nature without ruining it.

	Aristotle -- Politics [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		From the very first partnerships of male and female and master and slave, nature has been aiming at the creation of cities, because cities are necessary for human beings to express their capacities and virtues at their best, thus fulfilling their potential and moving towards such perfection as is possible for human beings.
		First, Aristotle points out that although nature would like us to be able to differentiate between who is meant to be a slave and who is meant to be a master by making the difference in reasoning capacity visible in their outward appearances, it frequently does not do so.
