And of course, you may say and think whatever you want.  Actually, I don't 
think that you are in a position were you are able to make me angry. .-)

I don't disagree that copying of the masters may be important when you are in 
the process of learning a craft, but creativity is where you start to differ, 
to make your own expression.  Strict copying is the opposite of creativity.  
Getting inspiration from previous works may be part of a creative process.   

To give up and say that everything is done is just .... (call it whatever you 
want).
