A lawyer's dream of heaven: every man reclaimed his property at the resurrection, and each tried to recover it from all his forefathers.
Samuel Butler, British Poet (1835-1902)
Why not pool your resources? And so we broke into the concept of the sacredness of private property.
Barbara Castle, British Politician (1910-2002)
It seems the most logical thing in the world to believe that the natural resources of the Earth, upon which the race depends for food, clothing and shelter, should be owned collectively by the race instead of being the private property of a few social parasites.
Ralph Chaplin, American Activist
The law of the Creator, which invests every human being with an inalienable title to freedom, cannot be repealed by any interior law which asserts that man is property.
Salmon P. Chase, American Politician (1808-1873)
Thieves respect property. They merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it.
Gilbert K. Chesterton, English Writer (1874-1936)
Private property is a very fundamental and very long-term institution.
Anatoly Chubais, Russian Politician (1955-  )
Killing the private property-that was the center of the Marxist economy and Marxist ideology. That was the center of the Lenin ideology.
Anatoly Chubais, Russian Politician (1955-  )
The Bolsheviks started not just on the killing of private property; they were trying to abolish money itself.
Anatoly Chubais, Russian Politician (1955-  )
Neither can men, by the same principles, be considered as lands, goods, or houses, among possessions. It is necessary that all property should be inferiour to its possessor. But how does the slave differ from his master, but by chance?
Thomas Clarkson, English Activist (1760-1846)
So use your own property as not to injure that of another.
Edward Coke, English Businessman (1552-1634)
Women do two thirds of the world's work. Yet they earn only one tenth of the world's income and own less than one percent of the world's property. They are among the poorest of the world's poor.
Barber B. Conable, Jr., -
Ultimately property rights and personal rights are the same thing.
Calvin Coolidge, American President (1872-1933)
I never say too much about that in public interviews, because it disappoints the public to tell them you're not that crazy about a property you did that possibly they liked.
Jackie Cooper, American Actor (1922-2011)
The Olympic Spirit is neither the property of one race nor of one age.
Pierre de Coubertin, French Leader (1863-1937)
The interest which lay behind Federalism was that of well-to-do citizens in a stable political and social order, and this interest aroused them to favor and to seek some form of political organization which was capable of protecting their property and promoting its interest.
Herbert Croly, American Author (1869-1930)
The electronic spectrum is the only natural resource in which there's no such thing as private property rights. You can't own a piece of the spectrum.
Adrian Cronauer, American Entertainer (1938-  )
It has been my aim throughout present operations to afford the greatest amount of protection to life and property interests, and troops have been stationed accordingly.
George Crook, American Soldier (1828-1890)
In the present state of our knowledge, it would be useless to attempt to speculate on the remote cause of the electrical energy... its relation to chemical affinity is, however, sufficiently evident. May it not be identical with it, and an essential property of matter?
Humphry Davy, British Scientist (1778-1829)
Regrets are the natural property of grey hairs.
Charles Dickens, English Novelist (1812-1870)
I actually do my own renovations. I designed and built a 100-foot split-cedar rail fence to enclose my property. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done. Don't recommend doing it alone. I also built a 100-square-foot back porch. Again, don't recommend doing it alone.
Jeffrey Donovan, American Actor (1968-  )
