[ Famous Quotes ] Forest Quotes

"I am not bound for any public place, but for ground of my own where I have planted vines and orchard trees, and in the heat of the day climbed up into the healing shadow of the woods." - Wendell Berry, writer "I shall be telling this with a sigh -- somewhere ages and ages hence; two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference." - Robert Frost, poet "The clearest way into the universe is through a forest wilderness." - John Muir, conservationist and founder, The Sierra Club "God has cared for these trees, saved them from drought, disease, avalanches, and a thousand tempests and floods. But he cannot save them from fools." - John Muir "[Forests are] the 'lungs' of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people." - Franklin D. Roosevelt, speech, 29 January 1935 "A grove of giant redwoods or sequoias should be kept just as we keep a great or beautiful cathedral." - Theodore Roosevelt, from an article in Natural History Magazine in 1919. Quoted in Farida A. Wiley, Theodore Roosevelt's America, 1962 "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived." - Henry David Thoreau "Trees give peace to the souls of men." - Nora Waln
