“A nap is not to be confused with sleeping. We sleep to recharge our bodies. We nap to care for our souls. When we nap, we are resting our eyes while our imaginations soar. Getting ready for the next round. Sorting, sifting, separating the profound from the profane, the possible from the improbable.

Just far enough to ransom our creativity from chaos.” IfsSoulEnoughBodyMightEyeCareNextImaginationSleepCreativityPositionAcceptanceReadyGeniusLuckySpeechSurpriseProfoundChaosRoundsConfusedPrizeAwardsReceivingSoarNobelNapsImprobableNobel PrizeSeparatingProfaneRehearsingRansomSortingSiftingAcceptance SpeechMacarthur Author:Sarah Ban Breathnach

“We have a duty towards music; namely to invent it. ...Invention presupposes imagination but should not be confused with it. For the act of invention implies the necessity of a lucky find and of achieving realization of this find.
