One of the great joys of life is creativity. Information goes in, gets shuffled about, and comes out in new and interesting ways.

Trying to force creativity is never good.

Creativity is the greatest expression of liberty.

Creativity is not merely the innocent spontaneity of our youth and childhood; it must also be married to the passion of the adult human being, which is a passion to live beyond one's death.

I go through major crises every few months, but then I have great peaks of belief and creativity. I'm a weird kind of animal.

Creativity takes courage.

My theory about creativity is that the more money one has, the more creative one can be.

Could I have worked under a system where there were Draconian controls on my creativity, meaning budget, time, script choices, etc.? Definitely not. I would have fared poorly under the old studio system that guys like Howard Hawks did so well in. I cannot.

I love how people in this business push themselves to know themselves, the world, and their creativity better.

Creativity is not the finding of a thing, but the making something out of it after it is found.

There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.

You cannot teach creativity - how to become a good writer. But you can help a young writer discover within himself what kind of writer he would like to be.

If the only way a library can offer an Internet exhibit about the New Deal is to hire a lawyer to clear the rights to every image and sound, then the copyright system is burdening creativity in a way that has never been seen before because there are no formalities.

We have a massive system to regulate creativity. A massive system of lawyers regulating creativity as copyright law has expanded in unrecognizable forms, going from a regulation of publishing to a regulation of copying.

I've found constancy and balance between creativity and normality.
