Be brave enough to live life creatively. The creative
is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your
intuition. You can't get there by bus, only by hard work and risk and by not quite knowing what you're doing. What you'll
discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover will be yourself. -Alan Alda
Creativity can solve almost any problem.
The creative act, the defeat of habit by originality, overcomes everything. -George Lois
It takes courage
to be creative. Just as soon as you have a new idea, you're in a minority of one. -E. Paul Torrance
Real intelligence
is the creative use of knowledge, not merely an accumulation of facts. The slow thinker who can finally come up with
an idea of his own is more important to the world than a walking encyclopedia who hasn't learned how to use the information
productively. -Kenneth Winfbrenner
The principal mark of genius is not perfection but originality, the opening
of new frontiers. -Arthur Koestler
A genius so-called is only that one who discerns the patterns of things within
the confusion of details a little sooner than the average man. -Ben Shahn
Discovery consists of seeing what everybody
has seen and thinking what nobody has thought. -Albert Szent-Gyorgy
The seeds of great discoveries are constantly
floating around, but they only take root in minds well prepared to receive them. -Joseph Henry
In every work
of genius we recognize our own rejected thoughts; they come back to us with a certain alienated majesty. -Emerson
In
the power and splendor of the universe, inspiration waits for the millions to come. Man has only to strive for it. Poems
greater than the Iliad, plays greater than Macbeth, stories more engaging than Don Quixote await their seeker and finder.
-John Masefield
