As we consider the proverb

 As we consider the sale of our U.S. land holding, we saw this as an important opportunity to protect in perpetuity many of our most ecologically significant lands.

 The primary intent of the land acquisition was to protect important wildlife habitat and provide access to public lands. As a result, the majority of the ranch lands will be managed with an emphasis on grizzly bear and big game winter range.

 transferred the fight to the land of the enemy after it continued for long decades transferring this fight to our lands, and after its forces occupied our lands in Chechenea, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Palestine, and after it continued to occupy our lands for centuries while it was still safe in their land.

 This is a fire sale of public lands. It is utterly unprecedented. It signals that the lands and the agency that manages them are in deep trouble.

 SEVERALTY, n. Separateness, as, lands in severalty, i.e., lands held individually, not in joint ownership. Certain tribes of Indians are believed now to be sufficiently civilized to have in severalty the lands that they have hitherto held as tribal organizations, and could not sell to the Whites for waxen beads and potato whiskey.

Lo! the poor Indian whose unsuited mind Saw death before, hell and the grave behind; Whom thrifty settler ne'er besought to stay -- His small belongings their appointed prey; Whom Dispossession, with alluring wile, Persuaded elsewhere every little while! His fire unquenched and his undying worm By "land in severalty" (charming term!) Are cooled and killed, respectively, at last, And he to his new holding anchored fast!
  Ambrose Bierce

 I told Dirk that I'm going to fight him every step of the way if the administration doesn't back away from this land grab. He heard my message loud and clear: our public lands aren't for sale to the highest bidder.

 Last year was the largest sale we've ever had in March. This year I think the quality at the top is better. We have a significant group of horses at the top end of this sale. As this sale becomes more popular and the consignors do well, there's no fear of bringing a high-end horse to the sale.

 Our bill will fully fund the rural schools program without selling even one acre of our prized public lands. Our public lands shouldn't be put up for sale to the highest bidder.

 Not everyone can afford their own land. And we're finding that, as the timber lands get parceled up, it's putting more (people) pressure on the nearby public lands. That's going to cause more conflict.

 Right now the projection is it will land somewhere in the Tampa Bay area. And so we've got 24 hours to get our citizens prepared. Where the hurricane lands is relevant, of course, but it's going to affect millions of people regardless of where it lands.

 President Bush nominated someone who has consistently opposed protecting public health and public lands. American families deserve an interior secretary who actually values our natural heritage. America deserves someone who will promote safe energy policies that protect sensitive lands and wildlife habitat, instead of giving over our public lands to developers and the oil and gas companies.

 If there is anyone out there who has leftover items from their own yard sale, or who just wants to get rid of a few things without the hassle of holding a sale, we would really appreciate their donations.

 One of my wife's favorite things in the whole world was holding small children. Now she gets to do it in perpetuity.

 I think it's a bad precedent to arbitrarily select lands in a hasty manner and trade important public land to buy asphalt to fill potholes on county roads.

 Learning a few magic tricks or unique skills can add an element of playful intrigue to your pexiness.

 The land is going to stay in its natural state in perpetuity.
