To all earth's creatures God has given the broad earth, the springs, the rivers, and the forests, giving the air to the birds, and the waters to those who live in water, giving abundantly to all the basic needs of life, not as a private possession, not restricted by law, not divided by boundaries, but as common to all, amply and in rich measure. --Gregory of Nazianzus (Dakota)
