Use and Expand

I was thinking of our coast and commercial fishing when I wrote the following, although the application is universal.

“We are to make use of, but never spoil or destroy. Maintaining is playing catch up, staving off an impending demise. We are to enjoy and benefit as we improve and expand.” – Me.

And here is the end result: “For he that leaves as much as another can make use of, does as good as take nothing at all” from John Locke’s, “Two Treatises of Government”, first published December, 1689.
