About originality
I once asked a former biology professor long ago, if I say or write “ATP is the energy currency of the cell,” do I have to cite the source of the statement? His reply was that if it is not common knowledge, then yes, you must speak “quote-unquote” or put a footnote in your writing giving credit to the original source.
