“The one single use of things which we call our own is that they might be his who hath need of them.”

“Who can tell what metals the gods use in forging the subtle bond which we call sympathy, which we might as well call love.”

“We should all stop wasting time using things we need, and start using most of our time saving them!”

“Back before the internet we had a name for people who bought a single copy of our books and lent them to all their friends without charging: we called them "librarians".”

“People use people according to their own needs. Or don't use them. When a primary need is one of safety.”
