“We ought to do good to others as simply as a horse runs, or a bee makes honey, or a vine bears grapes season after season without thinking of the grapes it has borne.”
Marcus Aurelius
“I can't say I hate cats, but holy cow, dogs are a horse of another color.”
“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here? ''That depends a good deal on where you want to get to'.' Said the Cat. I don't much care where / Said Alice. Then it doesn't matter which way you go, said the Cat.”
Lewis Carroll
“We ought to reverence books; to look on them as useful and mighty things. If they are good and true, whether they are about religion, politics, farming, trade, law, or medicine, they are the message of Christ, the maker of all things / the teacher of all truth.”
Charles Kingsley
“Do what good thou canst unknown, and be not vain of what ought rather to be felt than seen”
William Penn
“Some say that happiness is not good for mortals, and they ought to be answered that sorrow is not fit for immortals and is utterly useless to any one; a blight never does good to a tree, and if a blight kill not a tree but it still bear fruit, let none say that the fruit was in consequence of the blight.”
William Blake
“Every good newspaper is muckraking to some degree. It's part of our job. Where there's muck, we ought to rake it.”
James P. Cannon
