Conservation is a state of harmony between men and land.
Aldo Leopold
In June as many as a dozen species may burst their buds on a single day. No man can heed all of these anniversaries; no man can ignore all of them.
Aldo Leopold
We shall never achieve harmony with land, any more than we shall achieve absolute justice or liberty for people. In these higher aspirations, the important thing is not to achieve but to strive.
Aldo Leopold
All conservation of wildness is self-defeating, for to cherish we must see and fondle, and when enough have seen and fondled, there is no wilderness left to cherish.
Aldo Leopold
This song of the waters is audible to every ear, but there is other music in these hills, by no means audible to all.... On a still night, whenthe campfire is low and the Pleiades have climbed over rimrocks, sit quietly and listen ... and think hard of everything you have seen andtried to understand. Then you may hear it a vast pulsing harmony its score inscribed on a thousand hills, its notes the lives and deaths ofplants and animals, its rhythms spanning the seconds and the centuries.
Aldo Leopold
