An example of anthropomorhism in writing about science:
"It is by way of probabilities, it turns out that Nature outwits our two-valued logic of 'being' and 'nothingness': for indeed, a probability is neither one nor the other, but does evidently occupy a middle ground…Nature contrives to outwit our simple logic: by this physically inexplicable 'collapse' into objective fact the probabilities of physics manifest their transcendence…"

Note: there is a long tradition of personifying nature
