Of course creativity is a mystery. We don't know what drives it or what constitutes it. It's one of those things, like genius, you know it when you see it but it's impossible to define.

Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns in order to look at things in a different way.

Creativity is how we cope with creation. While creation sometimes seems a bit un-graspable, or even pointless, creativity is always meaningful.

Creativity is the process of having original ideas that have value. It is a process; it's not random.

The nature of creativity is to make space for things to happen... We can drive it out with our busyness and plans.

Creativity has more to do with the elimination of the inessential than with inventing something new.

Creativity is merely a plus name for regular activity. Any activity becomes creative when the doer cares about doing it right, or better.

Creativity is an inherent human quality of the highest order. When we create, we become more than the sum of our parts.

Creativity is bound up in our ability to find new ways around old problems.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were able to connect experiences they've had and synthesize new things.
