"Almost all creativity involves purposeful play."

~Abraham Maslow

~*~

"The creation of something new 
is not accomplished by the intellect 
but by the play instinct."

~Carl Jung

~*~

"If you want to be creative, 
stay in part a child, 
with the creativity and invention 
that characterizes children 
before they are deformed by adult society."

~Jean Piaget

~*~

“This is the real secret of life -- 
to be completely engaged 
with what you are doing 
in the here and now. 
And instead of calling it work, 
realize it is play.”

~Alan Watts

All of these quotes sound silly, but they are really profound statements. Jean Piaget's quote is so true and reminds me of one time when my partner's nephew, 9 y/o at the time, was visiting us and he pointed out how to resolve an issue we were having with the water sprinkler in a way that was "outside the box" but was so simple to him because his "box" had not been "deformed" yet. My partner and I looked at each other as if to say, "How Stupid are we???"

Thanks for all of these quotes
