A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Although men are accused of not knowing their own weakness, yet perhaps few know their own strength. It is in men as in soils, where sometimes there is a vein of gold which the owner knows not of.
Jonathan Swift
Bad conduct soils the finest ornament more than filth.
Plautus
It is in men as in soils where sometimes there is a vein of gold which the owner knows not.
Jonathan Swift
