"What a good artist understands is that nothing comes from nowhere. All creative work builds on what came before. Nothing is completely original."
"If we're free from the burden of trying to be completely original, we can stop trying to make something out of nothing, and we can embrace influence instead of running away from it."
From Austin Kleon, Steal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You about Being Creative, pp. 7 & 8.
