A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
创造
Creation
I was always fascinated by engineering. Maybe it was an attempt maybe to get my father's respect or interest, or maybe it was just a genetic love of technology, but I was always trying to build things.
我一直对工程学很着迷。也许这是一种尝试,也许是为了得到父亲的尊重或兴趣,也许只是基因上对技术的热爱,但我一直在努力创造东西。
I have made bouquets of pleats, bouquets of flowers, bouquets of ruffles, bouquets of feathers. Often I design in mousseline, held tightly around the waist, and with something else going on all around.
我做了许多花束,有打褶的花束,有折边的花束,有羽毛的花束。我经常用摩丝林来设计,把它紧紧地绑在腰上,周围还有一些其他的东西。
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made.

Education is the foundation for all we do in life, it shapes who we are and what we aspire to be. Creativity fuels innovation, and it's what all states should strive to instill in the next generations.

The painting is not on a surface, but on a plane which is imagined. It moves in a mind. It is not there physically at all. It is an illusion, a piece of magic, so that what you see is not what you see.
这幅画不是在一个表面上,而是在一个想象的平面上。它在思想中运动。它根本就不存在。这是一种幻觉,一种魔法,所以你看到的不是你看到的。
The art of an artist must be his own art. It is... always a continuous chain of little inventions, little technical discoveries of one's own, in one's relation to the tool, the material and the colors.
艺术家的艺术必须是他自己的艺术。它是……总是一连串的小发明,一个人自己的小技术发现,与工具,材料和颜色的关系。
It's very easy to make insects move. Because they do move mechanically without the rippling of flesh as you mentioned. They move more like real tinker toys and you can make models of them quite easily.

This character's entirely invented, and the woman that I interviewed wouldn't recognize herself, or really anything about herself, in this book, which she hasn't read, because she doesn't read English.

When I feel the urge to compose, I begin by appealing directly to my Maker and I first ask Him the three most important questions pertaining to our life here in this world---whence, wherefore, whither.

The dominant invades the entire picture, as it were. In this way I seek to individualize the color, because I have come to believe that there is a living world of each color and I express these worlds.
可以说,主导者侵入了整个画面。通过这种方式,我寻求个性化的颜色,因为我已经开始相信,有一个活的世界,每一种颜色,我表达这些世界。
Helped are those who create anything at all, for they shall relive the thrill of their own conception and realize a partnership in the creation of the Universe that keeps them responsible and cheerful.

The kind of environment that we developed Google in, the reason that we were able to develop a search engine, is the web was so open. Once you get too many rules, that will stifle innovation.
