There is no meaningful yes unless the individual could also have said no.

Whatever sphere we may be in, there is a profound joy in the realization that we are helping to form the structure of the new world. This is creative courage, however minor or fortuitous our creations may be.

Real freedom is the ability to pause between stimulus and response, and in that pause, choose.

The creative process must be explored... as the expression of the normal people in the act of actualizing themselves.

All our feelings, like the artist's paints and brush, are ways of communicating and sharing something meaningful from us to the world.

Good art wounds as well as delights. It must, because our defenses against the truth are wound so tightly around us. But as art chips away at our defenses, it also opens us to healing potentialities that transcend intellectual games and ego-preserving strategies.

All people are struggling to be creative in some way, and the artist is the one who has succeeded in this task of life.
