Ethics of Private Property

Carmina Paulus emit, recitat sua carmina Paulus. Nam quod emas, possis iure vocare tuum. Paulus purchases poetry, Paulus recites the poetry as his. For what you purchase you may rightly call your own. Si compra i versi Paolo, e poi li declama per suoi. Certo; quel che si compera può bene dirsi nostro.
