Day 114: Inspiration


Fragment: The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources
Font: Georgia
Quoted: Albert Einstein

I've really taken to this this rather cynical theory that originality is a myth. I suppose I agree with it in a lot of senses, especially in art. Everything is based on an inspiration, but does that mean it can't be original?
But if you don't remember/know how you thought of it, does that make it original within the frame of reference? What better way to hide than to forget?
