"The concept of property makes the world into a collection of discrete things which can be separated, sold off, and owned. To own something is to separate it from the commons and subordinate it to oneself. Accumulation of property, and particularly money, represents an annexation of the wild into the domain of self, creating a perception of security that is not really there, separating the self even more from the rest of the world, and reinforcing the illusion that pieces of the world can be separated out and made mine." ~ Charles Eisenstein
