Famous quotes containing the word forest:
“If I were a Brazilian without land or money or the means to feed my children, I would be burning the rain forest too.”

To such as trust her faithfulness.

When the night and morning lie,
When the sea and land refuse to feed me,
‘Twill be time enough to die.”
