Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.
~ C. S. Lewis
On Being Original …
C. S. Lewis has the gift of saying amazing truths in such a simple way. I have never thought of originality like that. Thanks for sharing.
Lewis is one of my all-time favorite authors and thinkers. Such wisdom!
