creativity quotes

"The mainspring of creativity appears to be the same tendency which we discover so deeply as the curative force in psychotherapy, man's tendency to actualize himself, to become his potentialities. By this I mean the organic and human life, the urge to expand, extend, develop, mature - the tendency to express and activate all the capacities of the organism, or the self."

Carl Rogers

I'm not sure what the *$%@# this even means!

Don't know what it means? Not surprising, considering who wrote it. He probably didn't know what he was saying! Personally, I'm not sure it's even English.

Marilynn Griffith,
who is glad you don't have to talk like that to be creative

You said it, sister! Sometimes, I read these comments by writers and it's just gobbledygook to me and I think, "I don't have the smarts if this is what it means to be a writer!"
