Every now and then you come across a quotation that as a creative individual seems to hit the nail on the head. A friend of mine gave me this one, and I thought I would share it.
"Be brave enough to live life creatively. The creative is the place where no one else has ever been.
You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. You can't get there by bus, only by hard work and risk and by not quite knowing what you're doing.
What you'll discover will be wonderful.
What you'll discover will be yourself."
Alan Alda (1936- )
American actor
advice to his daughter
Any more good ones out there?

The brain is a wonderful organ; it starts the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get to the office (Robert Frost).
The ultimate solutions to problems are rational; the process of finding them is not (W. Gordon).
What is originality? Undetected plagiarism (Dean Inge).
Sense is not common (R. Andom Source).

stop the world, I want to get off.
or just my signature.
or...the early bird may catch the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese in the trap.
or...depression is merely anger without enthusiasm.
Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow.
Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.
What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
Though I think, Al Pacino said it all in "Scent Of A Woman", when he says goodbye to his tomcat...: "When in doubt, ****"
