Creative Skill

Famous quotes containing the words creative and/or skill:

    “I have often thought that if photography were difficult in the true sense of the term—meaning that the creation of a simple photograph would entail as much time and effort as the production of a good watercolor or etching—there would be a vast improvement in total output. The sheer ease with which we can produce a superficial image often leads to creative disaster.”
    —Ansel Adams (1902–1984)

    “There are some occasions in which a man must tell half his secret, in order to conceal the rest; but there is seldom one in which a man should tell all. Great skill is necessary to know how far to go, and where to stop.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
