“If a man owns land, the land owns him.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.”
Bob Moawad
“Some men are born to own, and can animate all their possessions. Others cannot: their owning is not graceful; it seems to be a compromise of their character: they seem to steal their own dividends.”
“He that loveth maketh his own the grandeur he loves”
“He that possesses any Thing he has bought, pays Interest for the Use of it.”
Benjamin Franklin
“But this I know; the writer who possesses the creative gift owns something of which he is not always master / something that at times strangely wills and works for itself. If the result be attractive, the World will praise you, who little deserve praise; if it be repulsive, the same World will blame you, who almost as little deserve blame.”
Charlotte Bronte
“It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.”
Buddha
