About this Quote

This quote by Arthur Boyd speaks to the concept of a utopian society, where everybody has access to the resources they need to live a comfy life, without the requirement for ownership. Boyd suggests that if everybody had access to the same resources, such as food, paint, and pianos, then no one would require to own anything. This would create a society where everyone is equal and has the exact same opportunities, without the need for competition or the requirement to get more than what is needed. This idea of a utopian society is one that has actually been checked out by lots of authors and theorists throughout history, and Boyd's quote speaks with the idea of a world where everyone is provided with the same resources and nobody is left wanting. This quote speaks with the idea of a world where everyone is provided with the very same resources and no one is left desiring, and it is an idea that is still appropriate today.
