Quote of the day
Posted on October 20th, 2008 by Jackie Danicki
To create is to potentially embarrass oneself in front of others. It is about the courage to be oneself and to be seen as oneself. Putting ink to a page, or pressing one’s fingers against clay, or typing a line of computer code, or blowing glass and realizing mistake. Or success. With everyone watching. But most importantly, you…
Creativity is courage. The world needs more fearless people that can influence all disciplines to challenge their very existence. Creativity is reflection aimed not at yourself, but at the world around you.

So true. Although, most of those things are making me feel quite insanely annoyed today, for some reason. I guess it doesn’t say “creativity never makes you feel crazy” in there though.
