* Ah, good taste! What a dreadful thing! Taste is the enemy of creativeness.

as I am, do without something which is greater than I, which is my life-the power
to create. -Vincent van Gogh

has ever been created without great labor.

* The creative person is both more primitive and more cultivated, more destructive and
more constructive, a lot madder and a lot saner, than the average person.
