In the quote "talent borrows, genius steals". I think the key thing to remember is that in stealing you don't just use something in a post-modern sense, subverting or recontextualizing it. You actually steal it. You take posession of it's core meaning and extend it as if it were your own. It's a subtle difference, but it's a whole different level of understanding what you're doing.

the creative director at my work says, "amazon.com, buy.com, gateway.com, apple, microsoft... these people spend millions of dollars figuring out the best way to do things on the web... and what they figured out is right there on their website. so why don't we use it?"
