sic vos non vobis
  33

So you don't for you. Hemistiquis who wrote Virgil on the walls of the palace of Augustus, angered by the plagiarism of Batilo, for this to complete the verses. Only Virgil knew how to do it : Sic vos non vobis mellificatis , apes; Sic. . . fertis aratra , boves; Sic. . . nidificatis, birds; Sic. . . vellera fertis, oves. So do honey bees, but not for you; thus do the oxen, but not for you; thus you make the nest the birds, but not for you; that's how you carry the sheep, but not for you. So the creators make their works, but for us all to enjoy them. Intellectual property, yes, but art, culture, science, all the good things of life, at the service of all.
