The nature of things (usually referring to humans) is unchangeable - just as the leopard cannot change its spots, a person cannot change their nature.

it is because of your many sins
that your skirts have been torn off
and your body ill-treated.

or the leopard his spots?
Neither can you do good
who are accustomed to doing evil.
Jeremiah, 13.22-23, The NIV Bible.
