Results from Poor Man's College:

There is nothing in the world so much admired as a man who knows how to bear unhappiness with courage.: Seneca (5 BC - 65 AD)
There is a courtesy of the heart; it is allied to love. From its springs the purest courtesy in the outward behavior.: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749 - 1832)
The thing that makes a creative person is to be creative and that is all there is to it.: Edward Albee
There is in us a lyric germ or nucleus which deserves respect; it bids a man to ponder or create; and in this dim corner of himself he can take refuge and find consolations which the society of his fellow creatures does not provide.: Norman Douglas
If you see in any given situation only what everybody else can see, you can be said to be so much a representative of your culture than you are a victim of it.: S. I. Hayakawa
You dehumanize a man as much by returning him to nature - by making him one with rocks, vegetation, and animals - as by turning him into a machine. Both the natural and the mechanical are the opposite of that which is uniquely human. Nature is a self-made machine, more perfectly automated than any automated machine. To create something in the image of nature is to create a machine, and it was by learning the inner working of nature that man became a builder of machines. It is also obvious that when man domesticated animals and plants he acquired self-made machines for the production of food, power, and beauty.: Eric Hoffer (1902 - 1983)
Creative powers can just as easily turn out to be destructive. It rests solely with the moral personality whether they apply themselves to good things or to bad. And if this is lacking, no teacher can supply it or take its place: Carl Jung (1875 - 1961)
First, I do not sit down at my desk to put into verse something that is already clear in my mind. If it were clear in my mind, I should have no incentive or need to write about it. We do not write in order to be understood; we write in order to understand.: Robert Cecil Day Lewis
Because women live creatively, they rarely experience the need to depict or write about that which to them is a primary experience and which men know only at a second remove. Women create naturally, men create artificially.: Ashley Montagu
The mainspring of creativity appears to be the same tendency which we discover so deeply as the curative force in psychotherapy, man's tendency to actualize himself, to become his potentialities. By this I mean the organic and human life, the urge to expand, extend, develop, mature - the tendency to express and activate all the capacities of the organism, or the self.: Carl Rogers
