Definitions and quotes

Land
Land, sometimes referred to as dry land, is the solid surface of Earth that is not permanently covered by water. The vast majority of human activity throughout history has occurred in land areas that support agriculture, habitat, and various natural resources. Some life forms (including terrestrial plants and terrestrial animals) have developed from predecessor species that lived in bodies of water.
Landscape
A landscape is the visible features of an area of land, its landforms and how they integrate with natural or man-made features.
Land
Buy land. They ain't making any more of the stuff.
Will Rogers, as quoted in Land in America : Its Value, Use, and Control (1981) by Peter M. Wolf, p. 6
Land
Generally speaking, no young tree is allowed to stand on copyhold land.
Edward Coke, 3rd Rep. 15; reported in James William Norton-Kyshe, Dictionary of Legal Quotations (1904), p. 147. Hence the maxim, that "the oak scorns to grow except on free land."
Land
The equal right of all men to the use of land is as clear as their equal right to breathe the air — it is a right proclaimed by the fact of their existence. For we cannot suppose that some men have a right to be in this world, and others no right.
Henry George, Progress and Poverty (1879), Book VII, Ch. 1.
