I have just uploaded 6 more quotes and sayings, all but one on rivers. (Numbers 785 – 790)
My pick:
“In a country where nature has been so lavish and where we have been so spendthrift of indigenous beauty, to set aside a few rivers in their natural state should be considered an obligation.”
– Sen. Frank Church
This was of course written about the USA – but this admonishment applies to us all, in the USA or in our own countries.
