Discovery Can Give No Right Of Ownership, For Whatever Is Discovered Must Have Been Already Here To Be Discovered. If A Man Makes A Wheelbarrow, Or A Book, Or A Picture, He Has A Moral Right To That Particular Wheelbarrow, Or Book, Or Picture, But No Right To Ask That Others Be Prevented From Making Similar Things. Such A Prohibition, Though Given For The Purpose Of Stimulating Discovery And Invention, Really In The Long Run Operates As A Check Upon Them.
