First, I do
not sit down at my desk to put into verse something that is
already clear in my mind. If it were clear in my mind, I
should have no incentive or need to write about it. We do
not write in order to be understood; we write in order to
understand.
-- Robert Cecil Day-Lewis
1904-1972, Irish Poet
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.
-- Charles Dickens
1812-1870, British Novelist
It's like
driving a car at night. You never see further than your
headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.
-- E. L. Doctorow
1931-, American Novelist
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.
-- Lou Dorfsman
