"Only when the last tree has withered, the last fish has been caught, and the last river has been poisoned, will you realize you cannot eat money." — Cree Proverb

"The Roman Republic fell, not because of the ambition of Caesar, but because it had already long ceased to be a republic at all. When the sturdy Roman plebeian, who lived by his own labor, who voted without reward according to his own convictions, and who formed in war the terrible Roman Legion, had been changed into an idle creature who craved nothing in life save the gratification of a thirst for vapid excitement, who was fed by the state, and who SOLD HIS VOTE TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, then the end of the republic was at hand, and nothing could save it."

-Teddy Roosevelt
