I wouldn't go that far. Even though the Universe is everywhere, I still prefer to mark my brain as the source of my ideas.

Proof: if I'd suffer a serious brain damage, these ideas would stop coming. This doesn't prove that they originate there, but then if they came from elsewhere, they could conceivably come through some other brain, in which case they wouldn't be my ideas.

Mind you, I do love the Universe, because it's my home.
