“It is not the right of property which is protected, but the right to property. Property, per se, has no rights; but the individual - the man - has three great rights, equally sacred from arbitrary interference: the right to his life, the right to his liberty, the right to his property The three rights are so bound together as to be essentially one right.

To give him his liberty but take from him the property which is the fruit and badge of his liberty is to still leave him a slave.”
