Creative Thinking Is Not for the Faint of Heart
Be yourself; everyone else is already taken
"...Both arts and sciences advance through open-minded iterations. The alternative of staying within traditional boundaries suppresses the exploration of new territories...Creativity in arts and sciences establishes a backdrop for human existence, as the content it invents gives pleasure and meaning to our lives. The human act of creation is an infinite-sum game, from which all of us benefit. And we can all participate in the creative process, as long as we follow Wilde’s advice: Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” (Scientific American, 3 June 2021)
