Character, in the long run, is the decisive factor in the life of an individual and of nations alike. ~ ~ A vote is like a rifle; its usefulness depends upon the character of the user ~ ~ To waste, to destroy, our natural resources,
to skin and exhaust the land instead of
using it so as to increase its usefulness,
will result in undermining in the days of our children
the very prosperity which we ought by right to
hand down to them amplified... ~ ~ Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checked by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat. ~ ~ It is only through labor and painful effort, by grim energy and resolute courage, that we move on to better things ~ ~

~ ~ A man who has never gone to school may steal from a freight car; but if he has a university education he may steal the whole railroad. ~ ~ No man is justified in doing evil on the ground of expedience. ~ ~ People ask the difference between a leader and a boss. The leader leads, and the boss drives. ~ ~ Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground ~ ~ No man is above the law and no man below it. ~ ~ Our chief usefulness to humanity rests on our combining power with high purpose. Power undirected by high purpose spells calamity, and high purpose by itself is utterly useless if the power to put it into effect is lacking ~ ~ There is a delight in the hardy life of the open. There are no words that can tell the hidden spirit of the wilderness that can reveal its mystery, its melancholy and its charm. The nation behaves well if it treats the natural resources as assets which it must turn over to the next generation increased and not impaired in value. Conservation means development as much as it does protection. ~ ~ To waste and destroy our natural resources, to skin and exhaust the land instead of using it so as to increase its usefulness, will result in undermining in the days of our children the very prosperity which we ought by right to hand down to them. ~ Most Popular Topics:
