Treat the earth well.
It was not given to you by your parents,
it was loaned to you by your children.
We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors,
we borrow it from our Children.
- Native American traditional
We have an obligation to live in harmony with God's creation.
- Bruce Babbitt
Be gentle with the earth.
- Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama
A man is ethical only when life, as such, is sacred to him,
that of plants and animals as that of his fellow men,
and when he devotes himself helpfully to all life that is in need of help.
- Albert Schweitzer
Everything you do, and everything you do not do,
is your legacy to future generations.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
