A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
创造力
Creativity
One very important aspect of motivation is the willingness to stop and to look at things that no one else has bothered to look at. This simple process of focusing on things that are normally taken for granted is a powerful source of creativity.
动力的一个非常重要的方面是愿意停下来,去看那些别人懒得看的东西。这种简单的专注于通常被认为是理所当然的事情的过程是创造力的强大源泉。
Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it.
即使在文学和艺术领域,也没有人为原创而烦恼的人永远不会是原创的。相反,如果你只是想说真话(不在乎别人告诉你多少次),十有八九你会在没有注意到的情况下变得原创。
Creativity is a great motivator because it makes people interested in what they are doing. Creativity gives hope that there can be a worthwhile idea. Creativity gives the possibility of some sort of achievement to everyone. Creativity makes life more fun and more interesting.
创造力是一个很好的动力,因为它使人们对他们正在做的事情感兴趣。创造力给了我们希望,让我们有一个有价值的想法。创造力使每个人都有可能取得某种成就。创造力使生活变得更有趣。

In seeking to avoid evil, [humanity] is responsible for bringing more evil into the world than organisms could ever do merely by exercising their digestive tracts. It is [our] ingenuity, rather than [our] animal nature, that has given [our] fellow creatures such a bitter earthly fate.

As an actor, there is room for a certain amount of creativity, but you're always ultimately going to be saying somebody else's words. I don't think I'd have the stamina, skill or ability to write a novel, but I'd love to write short stories and poetry, because those are my two passions.
