Since I reached the conclusion that the essence of the creative person is being in love with what one is doing, I have had a growing awareness that this characteristic makes possible all the other personality characteristics of the creative person: independence of thought and judgment, honesty, perseverance, curiosity, willingness to take risks and the like.

Creativity is a distinctive trait of human excellence in all domains of behavior.

It takes courage to be creative. Just as soon as you have a new idea, you are in a minority of one.
