Not Exactly Original

Why are people often so determined to tell you how original, indeed, unique, they are? Wouldn't it make more sense to assert our commonalities - just how much we are made up of other people? There's something very soothing about the idea that you are simply recycling other people's thoughts.

Real originality, I suspect, lies in deciding who best to imitate.
