imitation

Through others we become ourselves.

One of the fundamental causes of the disintegration of society is copying, which is the worship of authority.

The great idea is the one that is either saleable or is worthy of imitation.

The hope is indeed that some will experience and believe: The purpose of a number of spiritual gurus is to demonstrate to God-fearing men faux spirituality.

People are eager to walk in other people's pair of shoes that does not fit them. The result is that, their dreams begin to imitate a "tortoise" walk and that I guess is already uncomfortable!

Fake sUCKs!

Your original self is worth more than your imitation of someone else.

People can copy anything; your mode of dressing, the way you talk, walk, dance, sing, cry, but they will find it very hard to imitate the way you donate money.

Imitation is human intelligence in its most dynamic aspect.

Parrots mimic their owners. Their owners consider that a sign of intelligence.

To imitate nature involves the verb to do. To copy is merely to reflect something already there, inertly: Shakespeare's mirror is all that is needed for it. But by imitation we enlarge nature itself, we become nature or we discover in ourselves nature's active part.

An original is worth more than a copy.

..if I dont do something on the grand scale, it is that my genius is altogether imitative, and that I have nor recently encountered any very striking models of grandeur.

You were born an original work of art. Stay original.

Originals cost more than imitations.

Be yourself. An original is worth more than a copy.

A person who is truly cool is a work of art. And remember, original works of art cost exponentially higher than imitations. Just take a look at the the coolest people in history. They will always be a part of history for being extremely original individuals, not imitations.

Stay true to yourself. An original is worth more than a copy.
