I don't want to be famous as a movie star and have the whole world love me I want to be a creative actress.

My mom always said I was the peacemaker in the family. My older brother Eric was the leader the creative one. I was just his puppet.

I have a really really really normal family. And by normal I mean we're all nuts on some level. I think you've gotta be a little nuts to pursue any kind of creative job. I was also a really good kid. I know that sounds really dull but I didn't rebel in the traditional sense.

Oklahomans value our children and our seniors. Oklahomans value traditions of faith. Oklahomans value our heroes our veterans. Oklahomans value innovation and the creative arts.

I think people who are creative are the luckiest people on earth. I know that there are no shortcuts but you must keep your faith in something Greater than You and keep doing what you love. Do what you love and you will find the way to get it out to the world.

There's tons of creative people in television that have one failure after another and they just step up higher. I could never get over that. When I had a failure there was no such thing as just getting over it.

Failure and its accompanying misery is for the artist his most vital source of creative energy.

Young players need freedom of expression to develop as creative players... they should be encouraged to try skills without fear of failure.

Creative risk taking is essential to success in any goal where the stakes are high. Thoughtless risks are destructive of course but perhaps even more wasteful is thoughtless caution which prompts inaction and promotes failure to seize opportunity.

Well my background is journalism. I don't have any creative-writing experience except for one class I took as a sophomore in college.

Working with HBO was an opportunity to experience creative freedom and 'long-form development' that filmmakers didn't have a chance to do before the emergence of shows like 'The Sopranos.'

Any film or to me any creative endeavour no matter who you're working with is in many cases a wonderful experience.

The mandate I have received and for which I will speak with heart and head to implement over the next seven years had its four pillars - an inclusive citizenship equality and participation and respect in a creative society creating an excellence in everything we Irish do.

We have to restore power to the family to the neighborhood and the community with a non-market principle a principle of equality of charity of let's-take-care-of-one-another. That's the creative challenge.

Equality rightly understood as our founding fathers understood it leads to liberty and to the emancipation of creative differences wrongly understood as it has been so tragically in our time it leads first to conformity and then to despotism.

Education in the light of present-day knowledge and need calls for some spirited and creative innovations both in the substance and the purpose of current pedagogy.

I worshipped Berry Gordy for the creative dreams he had made come true.

I knew I wanted to do something creative. I didn't think I'd have the luxury of doing something like that because I didn't know anyone who had pursued anything they really adored but I had dreams for singing or writing.

I believe dreams represent the purest form of fantasy we unleash through our subconscious. They represent the truest freedom we can experience. Totally unrepressed and totally creative.

That's a hobby of mine - to do whatever I can for unusual for-hire creative projects. I am waiting for someone to really challenge me - obviously I'm often approached to do film related work but I would be very happy to design a bar or an amusement park ride. I would love to be an imagineer!

The gays like 'Project Runway' because it's a fashion and the gays are into fashion and into design. It's a creative industry and most of the gays are pretty creative in general. That's just like the culture. We're not all into politics necessarily. We're more into the creative environment. I also think Heidi is a big draw. The boys love Heidi and think she's so fabulous. I just think it's a glitzy fun show and there are also always lots of gay boys on it and you know that's fun.

Marc Jacobs is full of creative people and Louis Vuitton is again a name on the door a name that has existed for many years but I'm a collaborator there and I bring in other people other artists and I work with a great creative design team.

Music is where I have the most creative freedom but I love producing. To me that's kind of where all the action is. You get a chance to have your hands in every aspect of a film. From picking a director sometimes picking a writer to the actors the wardrobe set design editing music and marketing.

Does not the very word 'creative' mean to build to initiate to give out to act - rather than to be acted upon to be subjective? Living photography is positive in its approach it sings a song of life - not death.
