Creation Quotes
-
Sexuality is a part of our behavior. It's part of our world freedom. Sexuality is something that we ourselves create. It is our own creation, and much more than the discovery of a secret side of our desire. We have to understand that with our desires go new forms of relationships, new forms of love, new forms of creation. Sex is not a fatality; it's a possibility for creative life. It's not enough to affirm that we are gay but we must also create a gay life.
Leon Foucault
-
Creation is either one of the worst experiences (when it’s going poorly) or one of the best. At its best, it’s an escape from worry.
Ken Levine
-
Impatience and cutting corners: it’s the primate way. It got us down out of the trees and up to the top of the evolutionary heap as a species, which is a lot more like a slippery, mud-slick game of King of the Hill with stabbing encouraged than any kind of tidy Victorian great chain of being or ladder of creation.
Elizabeth Bear

Northrop Frye
-

Rei Kawakubo
-
Let the power come. Let ecstasy erupt. Allow your heart to expand and overflow with adoration for this magnificent creation and for the love, wisdom and power that birthed it all. Rapture is needed now - rapture, reverence and grace.
Ann Mortifee
-
The effect of our knowledge rather ought to be, first, to teach us reverence and fear; and, secondly, to induce us, under its guidance and teaching, to ask every good thing from God, and, when it is received, ascribe it to him. For how can the idea of God enter your mind without instantly giving rise to the thought, that since you are his workmanship, you are bound, by the very law of creation, to submit to his authority?-\-\that your life is due to him?-\-\that whatever you do ought to have reference to him.
John Calvin
-
Consciousness expresses itself through creation. This world we live in is the dance of the creator. Dancers come and go in the twinkling of an eye but the dance lives on. On many an occasion when I am dancing, I have felt touched by something sacred.In those moments, I felt my spirit soar and become one with everything that exists.
Michael Jackson
-
What knowing the Mother means above all is daring to put love into action. The Mother herself is love–in–action, love acting everywhere and in everything to make creation possible.
Andrew Harvey
-
For my part, if I had the power I would insist on all oratorios being sung in the costume of the period - with a possible exception in the case of the Creation.
Ernest Newman
-
Our modern lifestyle is not a political creation. Before 1700, everybody was poor as hell. Life was short and brutish. It wasn't because we didn't have good politicians; we had some really good politicians. But then we started inventing - electricity, steam engines, microprocessors, understanding genetics and medicine and things like that. Yes, stability and education are important - I'm not taking anything away from that - but innovation is the real driver of progress.
Bill Gates
-
Man becomes not the lord and master of all creation but he is its servant.
Mahatma Gandhi
-
Creation is a drug I can't do without.
Cecil B. DeMille

Women have more inner power for creation, starting from family and home and ending with professional activity and politics.
Dalia Grybauskaite
-
It is by losing himself in the objective, in inquiry, creation, and craft, that a man becomes something.
Paul Goodman
-
In the act of creation, as in all the arts, the soul should be felt in the face and the fingers and the tongue, even in the cavities.
Chris Campanioni
-
My life burned inside me. Even such as it was, it was the only record of me, and it was my only creation, and something in me would not accept that it was insignificant.
Nuala O'Faolain
-
Your greatest creation is your creative life. It's all in your hands. Rejection can't take it away; reviews can't take it away. The life you create for yourself as an artist, may be the only thing that's really yours. Create a life you can center yourself in calmly as you wait for your work to grow.
