Famous quotes containing the words wave and/or properties:

    I hear
    the tide turning. Last
    eager wave over-
    taken and pulled back
    by first wave of the ebb.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.
    John Locke (1632–1704)
