Sex Talk
Him: Have you ever, you know, taped yourself with someone?
Her: No. I'd be too nervous it'd get out somehow. And what's the point anyway?
Him: Some people like seeing...views they'd never see otherwise.
Her: Never thought of that. Still. The tape might come back to haunt you.
Him: Yeah. So what if someone just hooked their camera up to feed to their tv without taping? They could watch what was going on from a different angle in the moment but not worry about the tape.
Her: I guess.
Him: Would you watch that?
Her: Watch myself having sex?
Him: Yeah.
Her: I don't know. I guess it would depend on what else was on.

This is the extraordinary thing about creativity: If just you keep your mind resting against the subject in a friendly but persistent way, sooner or later you will get a reward from your unconscious.
Nobody will stop you from creating. Do it tonight. Do it tomorrow. That is the way to make your soul grow - whether there is a market for it or not! The kick of creation is the act of creating, not anything that happens afterward. I would tell all of you watching this screen: Before you go to bed, write a four line poem. Make it as good as you can. Don’t show it to anybody. Put it where nobody will find it. And you will discover that you have your reward.
That is why I am here!

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people.

Adversity has the effect of eliciting talents, which, in prosperous circumstances, would have lain dormant.
