Creative Life Quotes (page 2)

I don't know much about creative writing programs. But they're not telling the truth if they don't teach, one, that writing is hard work, and, two, that you have to give up a great deal of life, your personal life, to be a writer. Doris Lessing
I feel with ELP that I wasn't making the most of my life and I wasn't making the most of my creativity. I was marking time. I don't want to do that. Life is to short. Greg Lake
The meaning of life is not to be discovered only after death in some hidden, mysterious realm; on the contrary, it can be found by eating the succulent fruit of the Tree of Life and by living in the here and now as fully and creatively as we can. Paul Kurtz
Julia Barr quote: "This profession has fed me creatively and allowed me to have a..."
This profession has fed me creatively and allowed me to have a home life and a private life. Julia Barr
Salvador Dali quote: "You have to systematically create confusion, it sets..."
You have to systematically create confusion, it sets creativity free. Everything that is contradictory creates life Salvador Dali
In a time of social fragmentation, vulgarity becomes a way of life. To be shocking becomes more important - and often more profitable - than to be civil or creative or truly original. Al Gore
Deepak Chopra quote: "What keeps life fascinating is the constant creativity of the..."
What keeps life fascinating is the constant creativity of the soul. Deepak Chopra
My children have always existed at the deepest center of me, right there in the heart/hearth, but I struggled with the powerful demands of motherhood, chafing sometimes at the way they pulled me away from my separate life, not knowing how to balance them with my unwieldy need for solitude and creative expression. Sue Monk Kidd
When I used to teach creative writing, I would tell the students to make their characters want something right away - even if it's only a glass of water. Characters paralyzed by the meaninglessness of modern life still have to drink water from time to time. Kurt Vonnegut
You must not let your life run in the ordinary way; do something that nobody else has done, something that will dazzle the world. Show that God's creative principle works in you. Paramahansa Yogananda
Carl Jung quote: "A creative person has little power over his own life. He is..."
A creative person has little power over his own life. He is not free. He is captive and driven by his daimon. Carl Jung
The middle path makes me wary. . . . But in the middle of my life, I am coming to see the middle path as a walk with wisdom where conversations of complexity can be found, that the middle path is the path of movement. . . . In the right and left worlds, the stories are largely set. . . . We become missionaries for a position . . . practitioners of the missionary position. Variety is lost. Diversity is lost. Creativity is lost in our inability to make love with the world. Terry Tempest Williams
No matter what your age or your life path, whether making art is your career or your hobby or your dream, it is not too late or too egotistical or too selfish or too silly to work on your creativity. Julia Cameron
If you want to be a writer, you must do two things above all others: read a lot and write a lot…reading is the creative center of a writer’s life…you cannot hope to sweep someone else away by the force of your writing until it has been done to you. Stephen King
Albert Einstein quote: "I lived in solitude in the country and noticed how the..."
I lived in solitude in the country and noticed how the monotony of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind. Albert Einstein
