In a world where lifelong employment in the same job is a thing of the past, creativity is not a luxury. It is essential for personal security and fulfillment.

Passion is the driver of achievement in all fields. Some people love doing things they don't feel they're good at. That may be because they underestimate their talents or haven't yet put the work in to develop them.

Teaching for creativity aims to encourage self-confidence, independence of mind, and the capacity to think for oneself.

What you're doing now, or have done in the past, need not determine what you can do next and in the future.

Everyone has huge creative capacities. The challenge is to develop them. A culture of creativity has to involve everybody, not just a select few.

Our task is to educate their (our students) whole being so they can face the future. We may not see the future, but they will and our job is to help them make something of it.

You cannot predict the outcome of human development. All you can do is like a farmer create the conditions under which it will begin to flourish.
