He is Risen! | | |
| I met in the street a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was
old, his coat worn, his cloak was out at the elbows, the water passed
through his shoes, - and the stars through his soul.
- Victor Hugo

| "Defenders
of the short-sighted men who in their greed and selfishness
will, if permitted, rob our country of half its charm by their
reckless extermination of all useful and beautiful wild things
sometimes seek to champion them by saying the 'the game belongs
to the people.' So it does; and not merely to the people now
alive, but to the unborn people. The 'greatest good for the
greatest number' applies to the number within the womb of time,
compared to which those now alive form but an insignificant
fraction. Our duty to the whole, including the unborn generations,
bids us restrain an unprincipled present-day minority from wasting
the heritage of these unborn generations. The movement for the
conservation of wild life and the larger movement for the conservation
of all our natural resources are essentially democratic in spirit,
purpose, and method."
Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt, 1916
