Creativity Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Creativity

1.
It is wise to learn; it is God-like to create.
Saxe, John

2.
It's like driving a car at night. You never see further than your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.
Doctorow, E. L.

3.
That which builds is better than that which is built.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

4.
I do not seek, I find.
Picasso, Pablo

5.
There were always people like the pope. They serve a certain function, of course. They subsidize us. But, they don't create anything and they must never be allowed to stop the artist from creating.
Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider

6.
To create something you must be something.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

7.
The desire to create continually is vulgar and betrays jealousy, envy, ambition. If one is something one really does not need to make anything --and one nonetheless does very much. There exists above the productive man a yet higher species.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

8.
Our senses are indeed our doors and windows on this world, in a very real sense the key to the unlocking of meaning and the wellspring of creativity.
Houston, Jean

9.
No one has ever written, painted, sculpted, modeled, built, or invented except literally to get out of hell.
Artaud, Antonin

10.
It seems that the creative faculty and the critical faculty cannot exist together in their highest perfection.
Maugham, W. Somerset

11.
The human mind cannot create anything. It produces nothing until after having been fertilized by experience and meditation; its acquisitions are the gems of its production.
Buffon, Georges-Louis Leclerc

12.
The legs are the wheels of creativity.
Einstein, Albert

13.
Creativity is a highfalutin word for the work I have to do between now and Tuesday.
Kroc, Ray

14.
The creative person wants to be a know -it -all. He wants to know about all kinds of things: ancient history, nineteenth -century mathematics, current manufacturing techniques, flower arranging, and hog futures. Because he never knows when these ideas might come together to form a new idea. It may happen six minutes later or six months, or six years down the road. But he has faith that it will happen.
Ally, Carl

15.
Out of nothing can come, and nothing can become nothing.
Persius

16.
A creation of importance can only be produced when its author isolates himself, it is a child of solitude.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

17.
I must create a system or be enslaved by another man s; I will not reason and compare: my business is to create.
Blake, William

18.
The power in which we must have faith if we would be well, is the creative and curative power which exists in every living thing.
Kellogg, John

19.
Creative activity could be described as a type of learning process where teacher and pupil are located in the same individual.
Koestler, Arthur

20.
Creativity can solve almost any problem. The creative act, the defeat of habit by originality, overcomes everything.
George Lois

21.
There is the happiness which comes from creative effort. The joy of dreaming, creating, building, whether in painting a picture, writing an epic, singing a song, composing a symphony, devising new invention, creating a vast industry.
Miller, Henry

22.
Ideally a painter (and, generally, an artist) should not become conscious of his insights: without taking the detour through his reflective processes, and incomprehensibly to himself, all his progress should enter so swiftly into the work that he is unable to recognize them in the moment of transition. Alas, the artist who waits in ambush there, watching, detaining them, will find them transformed like the beautiful gold in the fairy tale which cannot remain gold because some small detail was not taken care of.
Rilke, Rainer Maria

23.
The whole difference between construction and creation is this; that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists.
Dickens, Charles

24.
The good ideas are all hammered out in agony by individuals, not spewed out by groups.
Browder, Charles

25.
Thoughts give birth to a creative force that is neither elemental nor sidereal. Thoughts create a new heaven, a new firmament, a new source of energy, from which new arts flow. When a man undertakes to create something, he establishes a new heaven.
Paracelsus, Philipus A.

26.
Because of their courage, their lack of fear, they (creative people) are willing to make silly mistakes. The truly creative person is one who can think crazy; such a person knows full well that many of his great ideas will prove to be worthless. The creative person is flexible -- he is able to change as the situation changes, to break habits, to face indecision and changes in conditions without undue stress. He is not threatened by the unexpected as rigid, inflexible people are.
Goble, Frank

27.
I have asked a lot of my emotions --one hundred and twenty stories. The price was high, right up with Kipling, because there was one little drop of something, not blood, not a tear, not my seed, but me more intimately than these, in every story, it was the extra I had. Now it has gone and I am just like you now.

28.
Creativity requires the courage to let go of certainties.
Fromm, Erich

29.
Whatever creativity is, it is in part a solution to a problem.
Aldiss, Brian

30.
Creativity represents a miraculous coming together of the uninhibited energy of the child with its apparent opposite and enemy-the sense of order imposed on the disciplined adult intelligence.
Podhoretz, Norman

31.
When Alexander the Great visited Diogenes and asked whether he could do anything for the famed teacher, Diogenes replied:'Only stand out of my light.'Perhaps some day we shall know how to heighten creativity. Until then, one of the best things we can do for creative men and women is to stand out of their light.
John W. Gardner

32.
Creation is a drug I can't do without.
Mille, Cecil B. De

33.
Serious people have few ideas. People with ideas are never serious.
Valery, Paul

34.
True creativity often starts where language ends.
Koestler, Arthur

35.
One measure of how creative you are is how you respond to changes in your circumstances and environment. How flexible are you? Consider how water adapts to its environment: evaporation, condensation, snowflake, melting, flowing, goes around rocks, fills containers, etc.

36.
Man was made at the end of the week's work when God was tired.
Twain, Mark

37.
Most people die before they are fully born. Creativeness means to be born before one dies.
Fromm, Erich

38.
Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns in order to look at things in a different way.
Bono, Edward De

39.
We try not to have ideas, preferring accidents. To create, you must empty yourself of every artistic thought.
George, Gilbert

40.
The noun of self becomes a verb. This flashpoint of creation in the present moment is where work and play merge.
Stephen Nachmanovitch

41.
A truly creative person rids him or herself of all self-imposed limitations.
Jampolsky, Gerald G.

42.
Creativity is essentially a lonely art. An even lonelier struggle. To some a blessing. To others a curse. It is in reality the ability to reach inside yourself and drag forth from your very soul an idea.
Dorfsman, Lou

43.
It seems safe to say that significant discovery, really creative thinking, does not occur with regard to problems about which the thinker is lukewarm.
Henle, Mary

44.
Had I been present at the creation of the world I would have proposed some improvements.
Alfonso X

45.
I started concentrating so hard on my vision that I lost sight.
Robin Green

46.
Creative powers can just as easily turn out to be destructive. It rests solely with the moral personality whether they apply themselves to good things or to bad. And if this is lacking, no teacher can supply it or take its place.
Jung, Carl

47.
Whoever undertakes to create soon finds himself engaged in creating himself. Self-transformation and the transformation of others have constituted the radical interest of our century, whether in painting, psychiatry, or political action.
Rosenberg, Harold

48.
The most potent muse of all is our own inner child.
Stephen Nachmanovitch

49.
Everything vanishes around me, and works are born as if out of the void. Ripe, graphic fruits fall off. My hand has become the obedient instrument of a remote will.
Klee, Paul

50.
One of the greatest necessities in America is to discover creative solitude.
Sandburg, Carl
