Health Is The Capacity Of The Land

Conservation Will Ultimately Boil Down To Rewarding The Private Landowner Who Conserves The Public Interest.

One Of The Penalties Of An Ecological Education Is That One Lives Alone In A World Of Wounds. Much Of The Damage Inflicted On Land Is Quite Invisible To Laymen. An Ecologist Must Either Harden His Shell And Make Believe That The Consequences Of Science Are None Of His Business, Or He Must Be The Doctor Who Sees The Marks Of Death In A Community That Believes Itself Well And Does Not Want To Be Told Otherwise.

Too Much Safety Seems To Yield Only Danger In The Long Run.

In Wildness Is The Salvation Of The World.

For One Species To Mourn The Death Of Another Is A New Thing Under The Sun.
