If you copy then it is not self-expression.
Michael Schenker
Image
When you look on one of your contemporary 'good copies' of historical remains, ask yourself the question: Not what style, but in what civilization is this building? And the absurdity, vulgarity, anachronism and solecism of the modern structure will be revealed to you in a most startling fashion.
Louis Sullivan
Image
Reading a hard copy book, and reading a book on an iPad are slightly different experiences. What they both have in common though is that you must engage your imagination in the process.
LeVar Burton
Image
Early publication can be a dubious blessing: we all know writers who would give anything not to have published their first book, and go about trying to buy up all existing copies.
Joyce Carol Oates
Image
If I had time and a hammer, I'd track down every bootleg copy and smash it.
George Lucas
Image
In 1945, peace broke out. It was the end of the Joke. Joke warfare was banned at a special session of the Geneva Convention, and in 1950 the last remaining copy of the joke was laid to rest here in the Berkshire countryside, never to be told again.
Graham Chapman

If you use a poor headline, it does not matter how hard you labor over your copy because your copy will not be read.

I long ago came to the conclusion that even if I could put down accurately the thing I saw and enjoyed, it would not give the observer the kind of feeling it gave me. I had to create an equivalent for what I felt about what I was looking at-not copy it.
Georgia O'Keeffe
Image
A bit of advice, don't copy nature too closely. Art is an abstraction as you dream amid nature, extrapolate art from it, and concentrate on what you will create as a result.
Paul Gauguin
Image
In a bureaucracy, they shoot the bull, pass the buck, and make seven copies of everything.
Charles E. McKenzie

HOLLY: Are you suggesting I occasionally stray from the rule book? FOALY: No. I'm suggesting you do not own a copy of the rule book, and if you do, you have certainly never opened it.
Eoin Colfer

Cancer's life is a recapitulation of the body's life, its existence a pathological mirror of our own. Susan Sontag warned against overburdening an illness with metaphors. But this is not a metaphor. Down to their innate molecular core, cancer cells are hyperactive, survival-endowed, scrappy, fecund, inventive copies of ourselves.
Siddhartha Mukherjee
Image
It interests me tremendously to make copies... I started it by chance and I find it teaches me things.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Killing time in the precinct, I find a copy of one of my early volumes in a dump-bin on the pavement outside the charity shop. The price is 10p. It is a signed copy. Under the signature, in my own handwriting, are the words, To mum and dad.

We live in a world of copies and we're fascinated when we encounter the originals (in a museum, for instance).
Susan Sontag
Image
Be yourself. An original is always worth more than a copy.
Suzy Kassem

Ranger plays by his own set of rules, and I don't have a complete copy.
Janet Evanovich

Every time one of my books sells a million copies in paperback, Pan Macmillan gives me a gold statuette of Pan. I have about 20 of them.
Wilbur Smith

Oh, I've seen copies [of Linux Journal] around the terminal room at The Labs.
Dennis Ritchie
Image
That which leads us to the performance of duty by offering pleasure as its reward, is not virtue, but a deceptive copy and imitation of virtue. [Lat., Nam quae voluptate, quasi mercede aliqua, ad officium impellitur, ea non est virtus sed fallax imitatio simulatioque virtutis.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Image
Anyone who edits their own copy has a fool for an editor.
Donald Davis
Image
The trouble with us in America isn't that the poetry of life has turned to prose, but that it has turned to Advertising copy.
Louis Kronenberger
Image
I love the Hunger Games books. Certainly, the fans are there. They're grown enormously since the beginning. When I first brought the books to Lionsgate, they had sold about 150,000 copies, which is a very good result for a YA book. And to their credit, Lionsgate was very excited and committed to the movie, from the beginning.
