“Property taxes - particularly those which tax only or primarily the land and not the improvements - are the closest approximations we have today to community land contributions. For this reason, property taxes and home affordability rates - which is to say, land affordability rates - are inversely correlated. Land contributions are necessary for the vitality of every community and city. For example, urban sprawl is a consequence of not capturing sufficient land contributions and thus enabling inefficient land use. Community land contributions lead to a more intensive use of land and encourage the greening of a city's surroundings, as the existing population will tend to cluster closer together. Land contributions also encourage the restoration of blighted areas.”

“In our current distorted reality, land is often held speculatively without being put to productive use. Because people are able to profit from land and use it inefficiently, sprawl is an issue and farmland is constantly at risk of rezoning, thus forcing up the cost of all farmland. Land contributions would remove the profit from land speculation and inefficient use, releasing more farmland and also ensuring existing farmland wasn't constantly under the shadow of rezoning. Labour and capital taxes would reduce and thus also farming costs. Overall, farming costs would reduce and farmland would be sustainably available for agriculture.”

“This book attempts to evaluate the roles of the traditional landowners (whose reckless lifestyles led to bankruptcy and the acquisition of their lands by commercially-minded entrepreneurs); the new breed of accountant trustees (for whom financial probity was paramount); the Highland Potato Famine; James Cheyne, the clearing landlord; events elsewhere on Lismore, particularly on the Baleveolan estate, factored by Allan MacDougall; the influence of the Lismore Agricultural Society; investment in infrastructure on the Airds estate; the differing fates of farmers and cottars; the lack of alternative employment for the young; and opportunites elsewhere, particularly in the Central Belt of Scotland.”

“Er zal waarschijnlijk nooit een afdoende remedie tegen narcisme zijn; het is een onderdeel van de menselijke conditie. Het zal zich afhankelijk van de culture en economische realiteit van een samenleving meer of minder uiten. Het is zinvol om factoren die de weg effenen voor een meer narcistisch gerichte cultuur, zoals angst , ongelijkheid en onzekerheid, te verminderen en kwaliteiten zoals empathie en samenwerking te doen groeien.”

“De wereld wordt al jaren vergiftigd, maar niet door een gif dat je kunt zien, ruiken of proeven. De Angeli Terrae zijn er meesters in om mensen tegen elkaar op te zetten - en haat is uiteindelijk wele malen dodelijker dan welke chemische stof ook. Die sijpelt in de kieren en scheuren van de samenleving en bijt ze steeds verder uit, tot ze zijn uitgegroeid tot onoverbrugbare ravijnen. Het doet jarenlang zijn werk en het geniepige is dat niemand meer weet wie ermee is begonnen. Er is geen schuldige. Iedereen is schuldig. Dus niemand.”

“Most people will label you. If they don’t get the response they want from you, they may become angry or resentful. They might hate you if they can’t manipulate, guilt-trip, or control you. It has nothing to do with what you did or didn’t do, or who you are as a person. It’s about them believing they have power over you, they are entitled, and are expecting you to do whatever they want.”
