"Immature poets imitate; mature poets steal; bad poets deface what they take, and good poets make it into something better, or at least something different. The good poet welds his theft into a whole feeling which is unique, utterly different from that which it was torn."
— T. S. Eliot
American Poet
1888 - 1965

Originality comes not from creating something from nothing, but from putting a new twist on old material, by changing what was into what is. What writers are you reading today? What artists are you studying?
