This is how it
goes: I am infinitely indebted to my predecessors, my contemporaries, and the world's potentialities. Any word I could possibly form, any phrase, any story, any
thought, is inevitably derived from some previous source. Thus originality ceases
as a concept and is replaced quite simply, or quite complexly, by an amalgamation of
various prior and present encounters. Write, speak, create not because you are saying, speaking, creating something new, but instead because you are compelled to put pen to paper, words to air, intrigue to life. This is all that we can hope to do.
