Margaret AtwoodThose who today always look for disciplinarian solutions, those who long for an exaggerated doctrinal ‚security,‘ those who stubbornly try to recover a past that no longer exists – they have a static and inward-directed view of things. In this way, faith becomes an ideology among other ideologies.
Pope FrancisIt seemed like a very small possibility for me to become an artist. I didn’t have the need to be on the stage; I didn’t feel the need to be heard. I just needed to write.

Virat KohliThirty-three-years-old, still creating art. It’s rage, it’s creativity, it’s pain, it’s hurt, but it’s the opportunity to still have my voice get out there through music.
Kanye WestIn my early teens, I knew I wanted to do television production. I loved cameras, editing and producing, anything that had to do with television production.

Queen Elizabeth IIStarting your own business isn’t just a job – it’s a way of life.
Richard BransonIt is a curious thing: man, the centre and creator of all science, is the only object which our science has not yet succeeded in including in a homogeneous representation of the universe. We know the history of his bones, but no ordered place has yet been found in nature for his reflective intelligence.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinFilms and television and even comic books are churning out vast quantities of fictional narratives, and the public continues to swallow them up with great passion. That is because human beings need stories.

James MadisonI can get where some scientists would say comedians are crazy. What you have to understand: A lot of comedians are dealing with a dark passion. A lot of these are guys coming from a tumultuous life, including myself. Some people need outlets, a way to express yourself.
Kevin HartIf anyone offers conjectures about the truth of things from the mere possibility of hypotheses, I do not see by what stipulation anything certain can be determined in any science, since one or another set of hypotheses may always be devised which will appear to supply new difficulties.
Isaac NewtonTo raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.

Isaac AsimovEffective leadership is putting first things first. Effective management is discipline, carrying it out.
