The earth, the air, and the sun belong to all of us; they cannot be made objects of property.

We are all visitors in this world. Wherever you go in this world, to the north, to the south, to the west, or to the east, there will always be a man waiting to tell you, "This is my property. Get out of here!" When you visit other countries in the world and you come back, you will see that there is not a single piece of free land where your wife can give birth to your child, where you can stop and start working on the land, and where your children can find rest for your bones at life's end.

— After F. Robert De Lamennais

If you leave a man on land which is someone else's property and tell him that he is a completely free man and can work for himself, it's as if you drop him in the middle of the Atlantic and tell him that he is free to go ashore.

— Henry George

Those who own land in amounts larger than that which is needed to feed their own families can be treated as being guilty of causing the poverty of many other people.
