Creative Quest

by Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson

If you make things long enough, you will fail. That’s important enough that I’m going to say it again,

creativity is “one of the few human endeavors where you can crash your airplane and walk away from it.”

Creativity needs a certain amount of isolation to improve your ability to understand connection. Creativity needs a certain amount of indifference to improve your ability to make a difference. Creativity needs a certain amount of void so that you can be (and create) content.

creativity is a lifelong endeavor.

One of the things that I have learned is that creativity means being in contact with the creative process.
