Jack KirbyIdeas can never be traced to any one source. They are tossed back and forth between people until the decision makers step in and choose what they think is a success formula.
About This Quote
The concept of the "idea-tracker" is a fairly new one. And, as a concept, it's fascinating. The idea is that ideas come from somewhere and somewhere is their "idea source." In an ideal world, if you could figure out the origin of an idea -- the origin of your idea, for example -- you would be able to track it back to its original source. In reality, though, this isn't always possible.
Ideas can come from anywhere and have many different origins. Sometimes they're inspired by something that's going on in the world. Other times they're a byproduct of a particular person's life experiences.
Still other times they're a product of careful thought and analysis. The point is that ideas can travel from anywhere to anywhere. They have no origin or creator, merely being the result of their own travels from one mind to another over time.
