QUOTES

"Each generation takes the earth as trustees. We ought to bequeath to posterity as many forests and orchards as we have exhausted and consumed."

Arbor Day is not like other holidays. Each of those reposes on the past, while Arbor Day proposes for the future."

"The cultivation of trees is the cultivation of the good, the beautiful, and the ennobling in man, and for one, I wish to see it become universal."
