“A creative mess is better than idle tidiness.”
“It is better to have a fair intellect that is well used, than a powerful one that is idle.”
“Always better to be busy than bored -Idleness is a slow torture; it is an expert thief and your mind is the victim”
“There was nothing medieval people liked better, or did better, than sorting out and tidying up. Of all our modern inventions I suspect that they would most have admired the card index.”
“The creative genius begins in the idle moment, dreaming up the impossible, and later making it come true.”
“People aren't tidy creations to be stacked neatly in the Tupperware or poured in premeasured quantities from a box into the Cuisinart with no spills; everybody alive is a lost and disastrous mess.”
