THOUGHTS ON CREATIVITY AS THE YEAR TURNS

“The role of the writer is not to say what we all can say, but what we are unable to say.”  ~Anais Nin

“I’m a terrible cook, but if I could cook, I would see that as art as well, it’s how much creative energy you put into something.”  ~Tracey Emin

“Write while the heat is in you. The writer who postpones the recording of his thoughts uses an iron which as cooled to burn a hole with. He cannot inflame the minds of his audience.” ~Henry David Thoreau

“If there is a book you really want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.” ~ Toni Morrison

“To me, the greatest pleasure of writing is not what it’s about, but the inner music that words make.”  ~Truman Capote
