Copying Quotes - Page 4

• ...[Changers] were a threat to identity, a challenge to the individualism even of those they were never likely to impersonate. It had nothing to do with souls or physical or spiritual possession; it was, as the Idirans well understood, the behavouristic copying of another which revolted. Individuality, the thing which most humans held more precious than anything else about themselves, was somehow cheapened by the ease with which a Changer could ignore it as a limitation and use it as a disguise.

• Siempre nos preocupa estar copiando a otro, no tener nuestro propio estilo. No hay que preocuparse. Escribir es un acto comunitario. Contrariamente a la creencia popular, un escritor no es Prometeo solo en una colina llena de fuego. Somos muy arrogantes al pensar que sólo nosotros tenemos una mente totalmente original. Vamos a lomos de todos los escritores que nos han precedido. Vivimos en el presente con toda la historia, las ideas y los refrescos de este tiempo. Todo se mezcla en nuestra escritura.

• On the board was a list of words and phrases which her mother considered not suitable for use in college T-shirt design. She had been asked about them so often that in the end she had started a blacklist of banned words to which everyone could refer. Every time someone thought of a new one, she unflinchingly wrote it down... Rose read through the list, and turned back to her letter. These are the words I learned to spell in Mummy's art class today, she wrote, and sighed a little as she began the tedious job of copying from the board.

• Knowledge passes from dance teacher into the student through the process of mane, which is often translated as imitation, but learning to dance is more a process of total identification than of simple copying. We repeat the movements of our teachers until we can duplicate them exactly, until, in a sense, we have absorbed the teacher's mastery into ourselves. Artistic technique must be fully integrated into the cells of our bodies if we are to use it to express what is in our hearts, and this takes many years of practice.
