Property is surely a right of mankind as really as liberty is.

John Adams. Image: Peter van Geest AI. Meaning: Freedom and property are both essential human rights. Those who lack the right to own property can hardly protect their freedom. Therefore, the right to property is not a luxury, but a necessary condition for autonomy, dignity, and self-determination. Source: This quote comes from Adams’s political writings from the period around the formation of the American Constitution. He defended the idea that property rights are a fundamental component of a free society.
