originality

Unlike written words which can mend those leaving the tip of your tongue never bend.

Sometimes we have to behave indifferent towards people who proclaim their love to us, just to see if they are really different.

A facility for quotation covers the absence of original thought.

Salvation lies not in the faithfulness to forms, but in the liberation from them.

Originality, not Intelligence, is the sign of a brilliant Author. All the Education in the world won't help someone who can't think for themselves.

...originality is little morethan the fine blending of influences.

All the good stuff has already been said by someone somewhere at some point in time. You just have to find it. Today, communication pretty much comes down to understanding - saying what you have to say clearly and effectively...and then living it.

More than once I should have lost my soul to radicalism if it had been the originality it was mistaken for by its young converts.

No man, proclaimed Donne, is an Island, and he was wrong. If we were not islands, we would be lost, drowned in each other's tragedies. We are insulated (a word that means, literally, remember, made into an island) from the tragedy of others, by our island nature, and by the repetitive shape and form of the stories. The shape does not change: there was a human being who was born, lived, and then, by some means or another, died. There. You may fill in the details from your own experience. As unoriginal as any other tale, as unique as any other life. Lives are snowflakes__orming patterns we have seen before, as like one another as peas in a pod (and have you ever looked at peas in a pod? I mean, really looked at them? There's not a chance you'd mistake one for another, after a minute's close inspection), but still unique.

Start telling the stories that only you can tell, because there__l always be better writers than you and there__l always be smarter writers than you. There will always be people who are much better at doing this or doing that _ but you are the only you.

The reason some people put on a mask in not in their blood but it is in their fear that we judge them too soon.

Great artists are a little too gifted to be bound by boxes and labels, and in saying that, the label 'artist' is to be used lightly.

When I wrote this song I felt pretty unoriginal because everybody writes love songs, and everybody feels like their love is the most important and when their love ends and they get their heart broken, that nobody understands. And_that__ ridiculous, but so am I.

Nothing of me is original. I am the combined effort of everyone I've ever known.

I don't make people comfortable but that's what couches are for.

Why should i have fake smile on my face ,If my heart and soul suffering in unrest. it's not my duty to entertain you But its my responsibility to be Honest and Original

Just be yourself. An original is worth more than a copy.

The most mesmerizing of artists is always like one who was merely drawing in the sand and people came to watch.
