"Do not trace copy or steal"

No.
I'm going to look at art. It's going to signal to me in some way that clarifies some innumerably tiny new facet of the human condition. I'm going to steal that, i'm going to incorporate it into my gestalt of cultural context, and i'm going to create. There is nothing anyone can do about it. There is nothing anyone should do about it. This is the creative process and these pig headed notions that anyone can reasonably grind any aspect of culture development to a halt for their petty ego serves only as detritus in the face of our collective desire to express in our shared mythologies, regardless of how small those culture bases may be.
It will be blown away and if necessary I will be a hurricane.

It's different than taking someone's hard work and copy-pasting it to claim as yours: that is detrimental and offensive towards the creator, and doesn't contribute to the creation of new content either. It's a mix of envy and laziness.
Though the edge between the two is so thin...
