John Muir Quote of the Day " All Nature's wildness tells the same story: the shocks and outbursts of earthquakes, volcanoes, geysers, roaring , thundering waves and floods, the silent uproot of sap in plants, storms of every sort, each and all, are the orderly, beauty-making love-beats of Nature's heart."

  13. . In 1901, Muir published Our National Parks, a book that brought him to President Theodore Roosevelt's attention. In 1903, Roosevelt visited Muir in Yosemite. Together, they laid the foundation of Roosevelt's innovative conservation programs. Soon after that meeting, Roosevelt started on a course of action that established 148 million acres of national forest, 5 national parks and 23 national monuments during his presidency.
