John Muir and Protecting Trees



"Any fool can destroy trees.  They cannot run away; and if they could, they would still be destroyed - chased and hunted down as long as fun or a dollar could be got out of their bark hides, branching horns, of magnificent bole backbones...During a man's life only saplings can be grown, in the place of the old trees..."
(John Muir, 1838-1914)
