After so many years, I've learned that being creative is a full-time job with its own daily patterns. That's why writers, for example, like to establish routines for themselves.

To me, creative work is labor, like any other kind of labor. It's got value, and it takes your time, and it's useful to people, depending.

When anybody pays you to be creative, you're very lucky.

I'd like to think you don't stop being creative once you get happy.

But if you think you aren't creative that's cool, too. I think being around people who aren't creative is kind of refreshing and nice.

I'm probably creative for half an hour a day. The rest of the time, I'm just doing what's necessary to make that creativity visible.

As a creative person you just get an idea in your head, and sometimes you just can't shake it off.

I'm always creative.

I feel that my job is to create an atmosphere where creative people can do their best work.

I've always been creative, I think.
