Property Trusts

Famous quotes containing the words property and/or trusts:

“By avarice and selfishness, and a groveling habit, from which none of us is free, of regarding the soil as property, or the means of acquiring property chiefly, the landscape is deformed, husbandry is degraded with us, and the farmer leads the meanest of lives. He knows Nature but as a robber.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“He that trusts to you,
Where he should find you lions, finds you hares;
Where foxes, geese.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
