Common Property

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or property:

“Evil is neither suffering nor sin; it is both at the same time, it is something common to them both.

—Simone Weil (1909–1943)

“As a man is said to have a right to his property, he may equally be said to have a property in his rights.”
