Forest Resources

Famous quotes containing the words forest and/or resources:

    Above the forest of the parakeets,
    A parakeet of parakeets prevails,
    A pip of life amid a mort of tails.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    When we want culture more than potatoes, and illumination more than sugar-plums, then the great resources of a world are taxed and drawn out, and the result, or staple production, is, not slaves, nor operatives, but men,—those rare fruits called heroes, saints, poets, philosophers, and redeemers.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
