It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.

Creativity is the ability to introduce order into the randomness of nature.

The greatness of art is not to find what is common but what is unique.

Some movies bring out the creativity in you. Every single audience member can become creative in the face of a particular movie. If you happen to like my films, it's because my films provide a bed for you on which you can find your creativity. The Hollywood movies do not provide that for you.

Very few people are original. There's very little original anything out there. Because to be original means you have to stand alone.

A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.

Does not the very word 'creative' mean to build, to initiate, to give out, to act - rather than to be acted upon, to be subjective? Living photography is positive in its approach, it sings a song of life - not death.

To be creative means to connect. It's to abolish the gap between the body, the mind and the soul, between science and art, between fiction and nonfiction.

Creativity is always a leap of faith. You're faced with a blank page, blank easel, or an empty stage.

Creativity takes courage.

Art is about imagination. When you look at a picture from Salvador Dali, that's about imagination. When you look at Picasso, that's about imagination. Doing stuff from your heart.

True originality consists not in a new manner but in a new vision.

The emphasis and value on ideas and original thinking is an innate part of British culture, and in many ways, that describes the traditions of design.

Discover your own style. Don't try to repeat what has already been written - have the courage to do your own thing and don't be afraid to do something different.

Curiosity about life in all of its aspects, I think, is still the secret of great creative people.

Millions of men have lived to fight, build palaces and boundaries, shape destinies and societies; but the compelling force of all times has been the force of originality and creation profoundly affecting the roots of human spirit.

A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts.

Creative ideas flourish best in a shop which preserves some spirit of fun. Nobody is in business for fun, but that does not mean there cannot be fun in business.

Creativity is a habit, and the best creativity is the result of good work habits.
