It is obvious that the best qualities in man must atrophy in a standing-room-only environment.

One of the best things that came out of the Carter administration was the energy policy. The best things in it were renewable energy.

Admittedly, we must move ahead with the development of our land resources. Likewise, our technology must be refined. But in the long run life will succeed only in a life-giving environment, and we can no longer afford unnecessary sacrifices of living space and natural landscape to 'progress.'

The National Park Service today exemplifies one of the highest traditions of public service.

Nixon was a good president on the environment. Gerald Ford was good.

I dont remember a big fight between the Republicans and Democrats in the Nixon administration or President Gerald Ford and so on.

The national parklands have a major role in providing superlative opportunities for outdoor recreation, but they have other people serving values. They can provide an experience in conservation education for the young people of the country; they can enrich our literary and artistic consciousness; they can help create social values; contribute to our civic consciousness; remind us of our debt to the land of our fathers.
