Creativity is the result of a struggle between vitality and form. As anyone who has tried to write a sonnet or scan poetry, is aware, the form ideally do not take away from the creativity but may add to it.

It is dangerous to know, but it is more dangerous not to know.

In order to be open to creativity, one must have the capacity for constructive use of solitude. One must overcome the fear of being alone.

Many people suffer from the fear of finding oneself alone, and so they don't find themselves at all.

This personal freedom to think and feel and speak authentically and to be conscious of so doing is the quality that distinguishes us as human.

We express our being by creating. Creativity is a necessary sequel to being.

The individual human is still the creature who can wonder, who can be enchanted by a sonata, who can place symbols together to make poetry to gladden our heart, who can view a sunrise with a sense of majesty and awe.
