"The best way to help people to maximize their creative potential is to allow them to do something they love."
"Most people aren't anywhere near to realizing their creative potential, in part because they're laboring in environments that impede intrinsic motivation."
"True creativity is impossible without some measure of passion."
"Creativity depends on a number of things: experience, including knowledge and technical skills; talent; an ability to think in new ways; and the capacity to push through uncreative dry spells."
"Creativity is the generation and initial development of new, useful ideas. Innovation is the successful implementation of those ideas in an organization. Thus, no innovation is possible without the creative processes that mark the front end of the process: identifying important problems and opportunities, gathering relevant information, generating new ideas, and exploring the validity of those ideas."
