Quotation of the Day for March 17, 2010I once asked advertising legend Carl Ally what makes the creative person tick. Ally responded, "The creative person wants to be a know-it-all. He wants to know about all kinds of things: ancient history, nineteenth century mathematics, current manufacturing techniques, flower arranging, and hog futures. Because he (or she) never knows when these ideas might come together to form a new idea. It may happen six minutes later or six years down the road. But he has faith that it will happen." - Roger von Oech, A Whack on the Side of the Head. Submitted by: Kathleen Magone Mar. 11, 2010 |
