Quotations About This Subject:

- That which is not good for the bee-hive cannot be good for the bees.
- Modern man's capacity for destruction is quixotic evidence of humanity's capacity for reconstruction. The powerful technological agents we have unleashed against the environment include many of the agents we require for its reconstruction.
- I am I plus my surroundings and if I do not preserve the latter, I do not preserve myself.
