“Private property is held sacred in all good governments, and particularly in our own.

After the collapse of the socialist dream, I came to America.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“When the State wishes to endow an academy or university, it grants it a tract of forest land: one saw represents an academy, a gang, a university.”
