Daily Dose

From Progress and Poverty, by Henry George

TENDENCY

"The tendency of popular discussions to take an ethical form has a cause.  It springs from a law of the human mind; it rests upon a vague and instinctive recognition of what is probably the deepest truth we can grasp.  That alone is wise which is just; that alone is enduring which is right."

From Book VII, Chapter 1, The Injustice of Private Property in Land
