"All technology should be assumed guilty until proven innocent."
"There is one ocean though its coves have many names; a single sea of atmosphere, with no coves at all; the miracle of soil, alive and giving life, lying thin on the only earth, for which there is no spare."
"We do not inherit the earth from our fathers, we are borrowing it from our children."
"We may learn anew what compassion and beauty are, and pause to listen to the Earth's music."
"We seek a renewed stirring of love for the earth."
"We urge that all people now determine that an untrammeled wildness shall remain here to testify that this generation had love for the next."
