What is originality? Undetected plagiarism.
Originality is nothing but judicious imitation. The most original writers borrowed one from another.
Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.
The prerequisite of originality is the art of forgetting, at the proper moment, what we know.
Originality is not seen in single words or even in sentences. Originality is the sum total of a man's thinking or his writing.
Originality is the one thing which unoriginal minds cannot feel the use of.
Originality is simply a pair of fresh eyes.
Originality usually amounts only to plagiarizing something unfamiliar.
Originality is a thing we constantly clamour for, and constantly quarrel with.
Originality is undetected plagiarism.
