"Nature is man's inorganic body -- that is to say, nature insofar as it is not the human body. Man lives from nature -- i.e., nature is his body -- and he must maintain a continuing dialogue with it is he is not to die. To say that man's physical and mental life is linked to nature simply means that nature is linked to itself, for man is a part of nature."
-- Karl Marx, _Economic and Philosophic Manuscripts of 1844_, chapter 7
"Even a whole society, a nation, or even all simultaneously existing societies taken together, are not the owners of the globe. They are only its possessors, its usufructuaries [users of the fruit], and, like boni patres familias [good parents of families] they must hand it down to succeeding generations in an improved condition."
-- Karl Marx, _Capital_, Volume 3, chapter 46
