"If a man owns land,the land owns..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“There is no better way to exercise the imagination than the study of the law.”

“It is so wonderful to our neurologists that a man can see without his eyes, that it does not occur to them that is just as wonderful that he should see with them; and that is ever the difference between the wise and the unwise: the latter wonders at what is unusual, the wise man wonders at the usual.”

“Nature will not let us fret and fume. She does not like our benevolence or our learning much better than she likes our frauds andwars. When we come out of the caucus, or the bank, or the abolition-convention, or the temperance-meeting, or the transcendental club, into the fields and woods, she says to us, "so hot? my little Sir.”

“I don't think I've ever worked so hard on something, but working on Macintosh was the neatest experience of my life. Almost everyone who worked on it will say that. None of us wanted to release it at the end. It was as though we knew that once it was out of our hands, it wouldn't be ours anymore.”

“For if a thing is not diminished by being shared with others, it is not rightly owned if it is only owned and not shared.”

“If it's good, it's mine. If it's bad, it's a fake.”

“Whatever posessions and objects of its desires the lower self may obtain, it hangs on to them, refusing to let them go out of greed for more, or out of fear of poverty and need.”

“Give me the luxuries and I can dispense with the necessities.”

“Poor? What does that matter? When poverty creeps in at the door, love flies in through the window.”
