The more we exploit nature, The more our options are reduced, until we have only one: to fight for survival.

I've been through legislation creating a dozen national parks, and there's always the same pattern. When you first propose a park, and you visit the area and present the case to the local people, they threaten to hang you. You go back in five years and they think it's the greatest thing that ever happened.

Any change or reform you make is going to have consequence you don't like.

The ability to change one's views without losing one's seat is the mark of a great politician.

Lord, give us the wisdom to utter words that are gentle and tender, for tomorrow we may have to eat them.

The more we exploit nature, The more our options are reduced, until we have only one: to fight for survival.

If nominated, I shall run to Mexico. If elected, I shall fight extradition.
