Our property, we’ve taken the position that we’re phasing out the Confederate flag.
So use your own property as not to injure that of another.
Now, that doesn’t mean that individuals can’t have Confederate flags on their property. They have the right to do that. But again, it represents something that is not unifying.
In keeping with original Mormon teachings, much of the property in Hildale and Colorado City is held in trust for the church.

The Internet has been a blessing and a curse. The curse we know: A lot of people appropriating your intellectual property without paying for it.

Property in man, always morally unjust, has become nationally dangerous.

What we define as a bubble is any kind of debt-fueled asset inflation where the cash flow generated by the asset itself – a rental property, office building, condo – does not cover the debt incurred to buy the asset. So you depend on a greater fool, if you will, to come in and buy at a higher price.

When a man assumes a public trust he should consider himself a public property.

The spirit of the great outdoors and the spirit of America is freedom – let’s keep freedom alive by preventing woke bureaucrats from trampling on property rights with more land grabs.

Property is surely a right of mankind as real as liberty.
By virtue of our private property society, we have disconnected individuals from the land. We have put them in high rises and asked them to live their lives in urban settings, disconnected from the land.

I am for socialism, disarmament, and, ultimately, for abolishing the state itself… I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class, and the sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal.

The word ‘eavesdropper’ originally referred to people who, under the pretence of taking in some fresh air, would stand under the ‘eavesdrip’ of their house – from which the collected raindrops would fall – in the hopes of catching any juicy tid-bits of information that might come their way from their neighbour’s property.
I used to own two homes in Atlanta. But it was a lot of trouble. There are leaky roofs; you have to call people. It takes up too much time to own property everywhere. Now I stay at the St. Regis. I used to like cars a lot, too. I had 25 of them: Porsches, Ferraris.
It is fast becoming an article of political faith that financing America’s public schools by way of the local property tax is a shame and a civic scandal.

People assume that we have certain rights based on property that may be different now in a digital world.

By God’s grace, the only property my parents gave me was a good body. No BP, no sugar, no hereditary problems. Small build, tight skin.
The northern border is a different problem set than our southern border. We’re not going to put a fence between America and Canada, across Glacier Park. I grew up there.

Title deeds establish and protect ownership of our houses, while security of property is as important to the proprietors of Tesco and Sainsbury’s as it is to their customers.

‘Peter Pan’ is a beloved property. It’s a property that was brought to the screen many, many times before, so one has to not only justify the reasons why one might make a ‘Peter Pan’ movie in 2018, 2019 or whatever, but you also have to do justice to the source material.
I have some property. We have a few acres, so I like working on it, whether it’s cutting stuff down, cleaning stuff up, building steps, or working with concrete, you know, brickwork.

To ensure fair competition, there must be effective controls on currency manipulation, and monopoly pricing needs to be outlawed on such items as intellectual property, especially pharmaceuticals.

My first memory of flipping a house was when I was pregnant with my daughter Taylor. We bought a condo in Santa Ana, and I think we paid around $120,000. It was really exciting because when we went to auction, it was the first property we went to bid on and we won it.
