"It is a greater thing to be a good citizen than to be a good Republican or a good Democrat."
—Gifford Pinchot

This is a sentiment that would make our country such a better place if only our elected officials would adopt it. Pinchot was appointed by President Teddy Roosevelt as the first head of the U.S. Forest Service. Interesting guy, was quite serious about conservation and forestry.
