Valuable Property

Famous quotes containing the words valuable and/or property:

    All schools, all colleges, have two great functions; to confer, and to conceal, valuable knowledge. The theological knowledge which they conceal cannot justly be regarded as less valuable than that which they reveal. That is, when a man is buying a basket of strawberries it can profit him to know that the bottom half of it is rotten.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    A few days later the younger son gathered all he had and traveled to a distant country, and there he squandered his property in dissolute living.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 15:13.
