Creativity Quotes

“That's the fun part of it all. You get creative when you're in Little League. You're creative when you're in middle school. You're creative in high school and college. And then when you get to the league, this position, the more mobile quarterbacks, we have a tendency to want to become traditional and nervous and panicky in how we want to call plays and put guys in position to make plays.”

“I come from a visual background, and I grew up around a lot of hippies and artists. My mom and my brother and I moved around a lot.

I love people and behaviors, and I'm interested and fascinated by why we do what we do. And I wanted to be a therapist, to be honest. Maybe wirking in film combines the two worlds, in a not super-linear way, but it definitely feeds both my two passions.”

“As a former high school teacher and a student in a class of 60 urchins at St. Brigid's grammar school, I know that education is all about discipline and motivation. Disadvantaged students need extra attention, a stable school environment, and enough teacher creativity to stimulate their imaginations. Those things are not expensive.”
