“originality" is everyone's aim, and novel techniques are as much prized as new scientific discoveries. [T.S.] Eliot states it with surprising naïveté: "It is exactly as wasteful for a poet to do what has been done already as for a biologist to rediscover Mendel's discoveries.” Has BeensStatesDoneNovelPoetDiscoveryAimTechniqueSurprisingOriginalityBiologistScientific DiscoveryVetsEliotMendel Author:Randall Jarrell
“Originality is another criterion of aesthetic value. We may formulate an originality principle, according to which highly valuable works of art provide hitherto unavailable insights.... Notice that, although originality is a necessary condition of high aesthetic value, it is far from a sufficient condition. Many original works have little or no aesthetic value. An artwork may present a novel but uninteresting perspective, or one that is original but wrong.” MayLittlesArtValuesPrinciplesNovelConditionsPerspectiveOriginalsValuableInsightSufficientWorks Of ArtAestheticOriginalityCriteriaArtwork Author:James Young

“In this world that we live in we have originality in literature, but we also have TV and movies. I write love stories. I could never write a love story based on the Titanic - that was never a novel.

“I think that people are really hungry for original content. I think there's a sense of reboots and remakes, and we're lacking in any sense of originality in media. So, I think the people who want something like this which has a graphic novel feel or comic book feel but that is designed and created for the medium of television, I think that is something is very appealing to a lot of people.” PeopleThinkingWantFeelsBookNovelMediaTelevisionOriginalsHungryMediumsComicOriginalityLackingComic BookWant SomethingGraphicRemakesGraphic Novels Author:Miles Millar
