You can stand tall without
standing on someone.
You can be a victor without having victims.
(Harriet Woods)

We encourage you to be inspired by the quote and go further. Research it for

Originality
Our education and upbringing furnish us with many ideas and memories; we
have
knowledge and
insights that are not our own and we cannot take credit for
them.
Yet, we often put ideas together in ways that are
uniquely our own.
Perhaps we are not saying something new, but we are saying it in a different
way.
Originality is difficult in modern society.
Much of what we think and do has evolved from something else, and exists in a
modified form.
This is not a problem, providing we admit the truth. Who and what inspired you?
What prompted such an idea?
Be honest. It feels good.
Plagiary
Deliberately taking another person's work and
passing it off as your own is
plagiary.
You may make slight adjustments here and there, but you know the
truth and that
is what ultimately matters.
If you want to use somebody else's insights, credit the author with them, make
reference to them, link to them, list their books...
Do not simply
steal from people. Have some integrity.
