Today's Creative Quote comes from renouwned American dancer and choreographer Martha Graham: There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening, that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and will be lost.
This reinforces in me that my experiences are unique and worth sharing with those who have ears to hear of them!

Today's Creativity-Inspiring Quote comes from Mae West -- Hollywood's Original Bad Girl. Awesome for daring to be bad in a time when women were expected to be virtuous. "Whenever I have to choose between 2 evils, I always like to try the one I haven't tried before." - Mae West
Be yourself! This one inspires me to be choose "evil" whenever "evil" fits the bill!

As I work through The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron, I'm moved by the many quotes sprinkled throughout her pages, all of them geared toward inspiring expression of one's unique creativity. Thus I've decided to periodically post creativity-inspiring quotes on my blog. Moved as I've always been by jazz music, I'll start with one by incomparable, always-creative pianist, band-leader and composer, Duke Ellington: "I merely took the energy it takes to pout and wrote some blues."
Hope you find this moves you to turn your troubles into inspiration. As his enormous body of work testifies, Duke surely did!
