"If you copy, it means you're working without any real feeling. No two people on earth are alike, and it's got to be that way in music or it isn't music. "
Billie Holiday
"It is all very well to copy what one sees, but it is far better to draw what one now only sees in one's memory. That is a transformation in which imagination collaborates with memory."
Edgar Degas
"You can't copy anybody and end with anything. If you copy, it means you're working without any real feeling."

true words... copying is boring ^^ use your creativity and fantasy to create new stuff... feels a lot better :D
Found another very accurate quote:
“Life is pretty simple: You do some stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works. If it works big, others quickly copy it. Then you do something else. The trick is the doing something else.” - Tom Peters
I would like if more people were doing something else :-)
