Creative Skill

Famous quotes containing the words creative and/or skill:

    Lying increases the creative faculties, expands the ego, lessens the friction of social contacts.... It is only in lies, wholeheartedly and bravely told, that human nature attains through words and speech the forebearance, the nobility, the romance, the idealism, that—being what it is—it falls so short of in fact and in deed.
    Clare Boothe Luce (1903–1987)

    OUR Latin books in motly row,
    Invite us to our task—
    Gay Horace, stately Cicero:
    Yet there’s one verb, when once we know,
    No higher skill we ask:
    This ranks all other lore above—
    We’ve learned “’Amare’ means ‘to love’!”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
