The libertarian legal order would require only that no one be coerced into joining or giving up his property."

“I think we all look for clues that we are not utterly alone... Clues we find in literature and paintings and music and even someoneâ€™s eyes; clues that demonstrate that someone else has felt the same indescribable feelings, seen the same things or passed by the spot even if it was by candlelight three hundred years ago. It means everything, like finding footprints in the sand of a deserted island.”
