When I hear of the destruction of a species ... I just feel as if all the the works of some great writer had perished. - Theodore Roosevelt

Order without liberty and liberty without order are equally destructive.

There are many kinds of success in life worth having. It is exceedingly interesting
and attractive to be a successful businessman, or railway man, or farmer, or
a successful lawyer or doctor; or a writer, or a President, or a ranchman, or the
colonel of a fighting regiment, or to kill grizzly bears and lions. But for unflagging
interest and enjoyment, a household of children, if things go reasonably well,
certainly makes all other forms of success and achievement lose their importance
by comparison.

Killing a deer from a boat while the poor animal is swimming in the water, or on snowshoes as it flounders helplessly in the deep drifts, can only be justified on the plea of hunger. This is also true of lying in wait at a lick. Whoever indulges in any of these methods, save from necessity, is a butcher pure and simple, and has no business in the company of true sportsmen.
