Theodore Roosevelt does full justice to the people in saying:
I recognize the right and duty of this generation to develop and use the natural resources of our land; but I do not recognize the right to waste them, or to rob, by wasteful use, the generations that come after us.
(Quoted from The Wallace Stegner Center Twenty-Third Annual Symposium announcement, Public Lands in a Changing West. March 15-16, 2018.)
