I am doing an English project. I have to write a page of original thoughts. However, I do not know what?

Question

to write... What is an original thought?

Is it like saying.. "Education is the key to success"
PLease help me.

Answer 1

Here are some "original thoughts" about "original thoughts":

1. "There are no original thoughts or ideas. Everything you say or do is based on previous experience, and therefore is drawn from those who have come before you". (Timzilla.net, "original thoughts");

2. "Original research is a term used in Wikipedia to refer to material that has not been published by a reliable source." (Wikipedia, "No original research");

3. "Some non-original thoughts on diet, health and longevity" (www.longevitymeme.org)

4. "all generalizations are false" (this is a quote although I don´t know the source; however, it´s very tricky, isn´t it?)

Hope this will help you trigger many other "original thoughts".

Answer 2

Whew. How to answer this. An original thought is one that you come up with on your own, not a copy of other ideas. What you quoted is a common saying. Write a page about something personal to you, like your pet or a hobby you have. That might make it easier to keep it original.
