Whatever creative success I gained was due to my belief that creative power can be stepped up by effort, and that there are ways in which we can guide our creative thinking.

Creativity is the production of meaning by synthesis.

It is easier to tone down a wild idea than to think up a new one.

Creativity is more than mere imagination. It is imagination inseparably coupled with both intent and effort.

Reading supplies bread for imagination to feed on and bones for it to chew on.

Imagination is the cornerstone of human endeavor.

Observation capitalizes inspiration.
