You don’t think of Shakespeare being a child, do you? Shakespeare being seven? He was seven at some point. He was in somebody’s English class, wasn’t he? How annoying would that be?

My contention is, all kids have tremendous talents. And we squander them, pretty ruthlessly.

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

Human communities depend upon a diversity of talent not a singular conception of ability. and at the heart of the challenge is to reconstitute our sense of ability and intelligence

Private imaginings may have no outcomes in the world at all. Creativity does. Being creative involves doing something.

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

If a man speaks his mind in a forest, and no woman hears him, is he still wrong?
