have ideas, preferring accidents. To create, you must empty
yourself of every artistic thought.

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.
-- Frank Goble
A creation of
importance can only be produced when its author isolates
himself, it is a child of solitude.
-- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
1749-1832, German Poet,
Dramatist, Novelist
