Creativity Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Creativity

1.
The noun of self becomes a verb. This flashpoint of creation in the present moment is where work and play merge.
Stephen Nachmanovitch

2.
A line will take us hours maybe; Yet if it does not seem a moment's thought, our stitching and unstinting has been naught.
Yeats, William Butler

3.
All the lies and evasions by which man has nourished himself -- civilization, in a word is the fruits of the creative artist. It is the creative nature of man which has refused to let him lapse back into that unconscious unity with life which characterizes the animal world from which he made his escape.
Miller, Henry

4.
Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns in order to look at things in a different way.
Bono, Edward De

5.
We live at a time when man believes himself fabulously capable of creation, but he does not know what to create.
Gasset, Jose Ortega Y

6.
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

7.
To create something you must be something.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

8.
From things that have happened and from things as they exist and from all things that you know and all those you cannot know, you make something through your invention that is not a representation but a whole new thing truer than anything true and alive, and you make it alive, and if you make it well enough, you give it immortality. That is why you write and for no other reason that you know of. But what about all the reasons that no one knows?
Hemingway, Ernest

9.
A creation of importance can only be produced when its author isolates himself, it is a child of solitude.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

10.
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

11.
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

12.
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

13.
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

14.
True creativity often starts where language ends.
Koestler, Arthur

15.
We try not to have ideas, preferring accidents. To create, you must empty yourself of every artistic thought.
George, Gilbert

16.
Creativity is the sudden cessation of stupidity.
Land, Edwin H.

17.
The creative urge is the demon that will not accept anything second rate.
Mille, Agnes De

18.
The most potent muse of all is our own inner child.
Stephen Nachmanovitch

19.
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

20.
The problem is never how to get new, innovative thoughts into your mind, but how to get old ones out. Every mind is a building filled with archaic furniture. Clean out a corner of your mind and creativity will instantly fill it.
Dee Hock

21.
Creativity is a drug I cannot live without.
Cecil B. DeMille

22.
It is wise to learn; it is God-like to create.
Saxe, John

23.
Americans worship creativity the way they worship physical beauty -- as a way of enjoying elitism without guilt: God did it.
King, Florence

24.
Is not the tremendous strength in men of the impulse to creative work in every field precisely due to their feeling of playing a relatively small part in the creation of living beings, which constantly impels them to an overcompensation in achievement?
Horney, Karen

25.
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

26.
Creative activity could be described as a type of learning process where teacher and pupil are located in the same individual.
Koestler, Arthur

27.
Genius is initiative on fire.
Jackson, George Holbrook

28.
Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system.
Lee, Bruce

29.
Humanity can be quite cold to those whose eyes see the world differently.
Eric A. Burns

30.
That which builds is better than that which is built.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

31.
I do not seek, I find.
Picasso, Pablo

32.
When all is said and done, monotony may after all be the best condition for creation.
Sackville, Margaret

33.
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

34.
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.

35.
The legs are the wheels of creativity.
Einstein, Albert

36.
The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.
Carl Jung

37.
Man was made at the end of the week's work when God was tired.
Twain, Mark

38.
The creative process involves getting input, making a recommendation, getting critical review, getting more input, improving the recommendation, getting more critical review... again and again and again.

39.
All works of art are commissioned in the sense that no artist can create one by a simple act of will but must wait until what he believes to be a good idea for a work comes to him.
Auden, W. H.

40.
The good ideas are all hammered out in agony by individuals, not spewed out by groups.
Browder, Charles

41.
Creativity can solve almost any problem. The creative act, the defeat of habit by originality, overcomes everything.
George Lois

42.
Observe Everything. Communicate Well. Draw, Draw, Draw.
Frank Thomas

43.
All in all, the creative act is not performed by the artist alone; the spectator brings the work in contact with the external world by deciphering and interpreting its inner qualifications and thus adds his contribution to the creative act. This becomes even more obvious when posterity gives its final verdict and sometimes rehabilitates forgotten artists.
Duchamp, Marcel

44.
Whatever creativity is, it is in part a solution to a problem.
Aldiss, Brian

45.
No one has ever written, painted, sculpted, modeled, built, or invented except literally to get out of hell.
Artaud, Antonin

46.
An original is a creation motivated by desire. Any reproduction of an originals motivated be necessity. It is marvelous that we are the only species that creates gratuitous forms. To create is divine, to reproduce is human.
Ray, Man

47.
The essential part of creativity is not being afraid to fail.
Land, Edwin H.

48.
A truly creative person rids him or herself of all self-imposed limitations.
Jampolsky, Gerald G.

49.
Every time we say, "Let there be!" in any form, something happens.
Stella Terrill Mann

50.
Some collaboration has to take place in the mind between the woman and the man before the art of creation can be accomplished. Some marriage of opposites has to be consummated. The whole of the mind must lie wide open if we are to get the sense that the
Woolf, Virginia
