                                                                Theodore Roosevelt

  2. Good quotes and very relevant. I hadn’t seen the Roosevelt one before. This line is very colorful :”Do not let selfish men or greedy interests skin your country of its beauty, its riches or its romance.” This is another one you might like: ” When the last tree is cut, the last fish is caught, and the last river is polluted; when to breathe the air is sickening, you will realize, too late, that wealth is not in bank accounts and that you can’t eat money.” by Alanis Obomsawin, an Abenaki (a Native American tribe) She is a documentarist.
