What is the theme and idea of William Wordsworth's writing?I need some of his quotations about nature.

Wordsworth  claims himself as the worship per of Nature .Certainly the claim is tenable .From his autobiographical poem ,-Tin tern Abbey , we find how his love for Nature under went successive changes .In his early child hood , he like a roe mounted over the hills ,tall rocks , walked through the secluded valleys , enjoyed landscape , etc .Nature was an appetite to him . With his growing manhood he could the still music of humanity .In his advanced age , the dumbness of nature entered into him , and he attained meditative calmness .From this confession of the poet , we can say that the theme of Wordsworth's poem is Nature and reflection of Nature .


The idea is a philosophy ;of peace ,tranquility of mind , service to humanity , etc .The poet professes that Nature never did betray the heart that loves her , she leads man from joy to joy .


Wordsworth , follows Russuae , and believes that so long man is away from nature , he gets corrupted .


Simplicity ,life of fortitude ,acceptance of what nature gives ,find a voice in Wordsworth's writings .A critical view of his poems ,-The Leech -Gatherer ,and  Michael link us to this aspects of writing .


Man and Nature , relation between man and nature , effort of establishing a harmonious relation between the , recur to almost all his poems .


The poems , The Daffodils ,and  The Solitary Reaper , focus on the idea that the recollections of the beauty of Nature return as bliss of solitude in one's dreary intercourse of artificial city- life.Again Wordsworth advocates the use of rustic language as the diction of poetry .This signifies the linguistic communication with Nature .The propagation ,-there is no difference between the language of prose and poetry , is a revulation , that reforms the style of one' thoughts .
