Million Trees

Famous quotes containing the words million and/or trees:

    Mere human beings can’t afford to be fanatical about anything.... Not even about justice or loyalty. The fanatic for justice ends by murdering a million helpless people to clear a space for his law-courts. If we are to survive on this planet, there must be compromises.
    Storm Jameson (1891–1986)

    One generation plants the trees under which another takes its ease.
    Chinese proverb.
