Art is the desire of a man to express himself, to record the reactions of his personality to the world he lives in.
Amy Lowell
To fulfill a dream, to be allowed to sweat over lonely labor, to be given the chance to create, is the meat and potatoes of life. The money is the gravy. As everyone else, I love to dunk my crust in it. But alone, it is not a diet designed to keep body and soul together.
Bette Davis
Creativity can solve almost any problem. The creative act, the defeat of habit by originality, overcomes everything.
George Lois
Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
Scott Adams
You were placed on this earth to create, not to compete.
Dr. Robert Anthony
Be regular and orderly in your life so that you may be violent and original in your work.
Gustave Flaubert
Creation is a better means of self-expression than possession; it is through creating, not possessing, that life is revealed.
Vida Scudder
Training yourself to think unthinkable thoughts has advantages beyond the thoughts themselves. It's like stretching. When you stretch before running, you put your body into positions much more extreme than any it will assume during the run. If you can think things so outside the box that they'd make people's hair stand on end, you'll have no trouble with the small trips outside the box that people call innovative.
Paul Graham

We are like violins. We can be used for doorstops, or we can make music.
