Weekend quote: The threat of selfish men and greedy interests

Here is your country. 

Cherish these natural wonders, 

cherish the natural resources, 

cherish the history and romance 

as a sacred heritage, 

for your children 

and your children’s children. 

Do not let selfish men 

or greedy interests 

skin your country of its beauty, 

its riches 

or its romance.

 —Theodore Roosevelt
