A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
创造
Creation
God is Within You! You yourself are the creator. If you find that place within you from which you brought this thing about, you will be able to live with it and affirm it, perhaps even enjoy it, as your life.
神就在你里面!你自己就是创造者。如果你找到了你带来这件事的那个地方，你就能和它一起生活，肯定它，甚至享受它，就像你的生活一样。
God is in the world, or nowhere, creating continually in us and around us. Insofar as man partakes of this creative process does he partake of the divine, of God, and that participation is his immortality ....
上帝在这个世界上，或者不在任何地方，不断地在我们身上和我们周围创造。只要人参与了这个创造的过程，他就参与了神的创造，而这种参与就是他的不朽……
Painting and sculpture are very archaic forms. It's the only thing left in our industrial society where an individual alone can make something with not just his own hands, but brains, imagination, heart maybe.
绘画和雕塑是非常古老的形式。这是我们工业社会中唯一剩下的东西，在这个社会里，一个人不仅可以用自己的双手，还可以用自己的头脑、想象力和心灵去创造一些东西。
I love the idea of leaving some of the original abstract thought in, because the problem is that when you pick up a pen you become a snob, your own worse critic. You edit yourself in a way that is non-creative.
我喜欢保留一些原始的抽象思想，因为问题是，当你拿起笔的时候，你会变成一个势利小人，一个更糟糕的批评家。你以一种非创造性的方式编辑自己。
His imagination conceived and bore - worlds; but nothing in these worlds became alive until he discovered its true and living name. The name was the breath of life; and, sooner or later, he invariably found it.
他的想象力构思并使世界变得枯燥乏味;但是，在他发现这个世界的真实和活生生的名字之前，这些世界上没有任何东西是活着的。那名字就是生命的气息;迟早，他总会找到的。
The greatest real thrill that life offers is to create, to construct, to develop something useful. Too often we fail to recognize and pay tribute to the creative spirit. It is that spirit that creates our jobs.
生活给我们带来的最大的刺激是创造、构建和发展一些有用的东西。我们常常没有认识到并赞扬这种创造精神。正是这种精神创造了我们的就业机会。
It is true I had been successful on a small scale in overcoming one of the main difficulties in the new process, but there was still much to invent, and much that at that period I necessarily knew nothing about.
的确，我在小范围内克服了新进程中的一个主要困难，并取得了成功，但仍有许多东西需要发明，而在那个时期，我必然对许多东西一无所知。
When I think of music, I think of music in its totality, complete. From the lowest blues to the highest symphony, you know, so what I'd like to do is exemplify each style of as many periods as I can possibly do.
当我想到音乐时，我想到的是音乐的整体，完整。从最低调的蓝调到最高调的交响乐，所以我想做的是尽可能多地举例说明每一种风格。
Usually I like to improvise. Sometimes, depending on the nature of the piece, I like to improvise because I think it brings certain freshness and a reality to it, as long as it doesn't go too far out of the box.
通常我喜欢即兴发挥。有时，根据作品的性质，我喜欢即兴创作，因为我认为它能带来一定的新鲜感和现实感，只要不太出格。
At first I had some idea that the absence of color made the work more physical. Early on I was very involved with the notion of the painting as an object and tended to attack that idea from different directions.
起初，我有一些想法，没有颜色使工作更物理。在早期，我非常关注绘画作为一种物体的概念，并倾向于从不同的方向攻击这个概念。
But with The Dark Crystal, instead of puppetry we're trying to go toward a sense of realism - toward a reality of creatures that are actually alive and we're mixing up puppetry and all kinds of other techniques.
但是用暗色水晶，而不是木偶戏，我们试图走向一种现实主义的感觉，走向一种真实存在的生物的现实，我们混合了木偶戏和各种各样的其他技术。
Keeping our eyes on journey's end is what we need - the place where we see at last the world that is greater than the world, the new creation that cannot be contained in present thought or social order or piety.
关注旅程的终点是我们所需要的——在那里我们最终看到了一个比世界更大的世界，无法包含在当前的思想、社会秩序或虔诚中的新创造。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
Creativity is piercing the mundane to find the marvelous.

Make an empty space in any corner of your mind, and creativity will instantly fill it.
在你头脑的任何一个角落留下一个空白，你的创造力就会立刻填补它。
In order to be creative you have to be allowed to fail.
为了有创造力，你必须允许自己失败。
If you want creative workers, give them enough time to play.
如果你想要有创造力的员工，给他们足够的时间去玩。
Ingenuity, plus courage, plus work, equals miracles.
独创性，加上勇气，加上努力，等于奇迹。
No story comes from nowhere; new stories are born from old-it is the new combinations that make them new.
没有故事是凭空而来的;新故事从旧故事中诞生——是新的组合使它们成为新的。
