All ADAM SMITH Quotes about “Property”

“A power to dispose of estates for ever is manifestly absurd. The earth and the fulness of it belongs to every generation, and the preceding one can have no right to bind it up from posterity. Such extension of property is quite unnatural.”
“The tolls for the maintenance of a high road, cannot with any safety be made the property of private persons.”
