• We have got to start loving life and the living. We have to respect that thing which we cannot create, which is life and stop taking it from people and stop taking it from things. Stop taking it. We can't make it. We can't reproduce one single person.
  Maya Angelou Quotes - Poets
• I think that the very earliest influence was a horror of having to work in a bank or an office, a desire for a free and creative life.
  Frank Auerbach Quotes - Artists
• The creative process is a cocktail of instinct, skill, culture and a highly creative feverishness. It is not like a drug; it is a particular state when everything happens very quickly, a mixture of consciousness and unconsciousness, of fear and pleasure; it’s a little like making love, the physical act of love.
  Francis Bacon Quotes - Artists
• I must create a system or be enslaved by another man's. I will not reason and compare.. my business is to create.
  William Blake Quotes - Artists
• Working on our own consciousness is the most important thing that we are doing at any moment, and being love is a supreme creative act.
  Ram Dass Quotes - New Age Teachers
• I know what I’m doing with my work, and that’s really a nice feeling, that I’ve created something that wasn’t there before, that’s mine.
  Tracey Emin Quotes - Female Artists - Artists
• My idea of a perfect image is where I have created a beautiful environment, and the baby has given something of its personality. That extra spark in the image is always supplied by the baby. When you look at one of my images, your eye is always drawn to the baby's face, regardless of how complicated the setting is. The babies are always the most important aspect of the image, and so they should be.
  Anne Geddes Quotes - Women - Photographers
• From the living fountain of instinct flows everything that is creative; hence the unconscious is not merely conditioned by history, but is the very source of the creative impulse. It is like Nature herself - prodigiously conservative, and yet transcending her own historical conditions in her acts of creation.
  CG Jung Quotes - Motivational People
• A young painter who cannot liberate himself from the influence of past generations is digging his own grave.
  Henri Matisse Quotes - art advice - Artists
• You cannot find your soul with your mind, you must use your heart. You must know what you are feeling. If you don't know what you are feeling, you will create unconsciously. If you are unconscious of an aspect of yourself; if it operates outside your field of awareness, that aspect has power over you.
