On Creativity
Mark K February 16th, 2007
My friend Tucker shared this quote with me, which relates to the idea of creativity. It seems to me that one can interpret it in a number of different ways, some of which are in direct contradiction with others. What does it mean to you?
“In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be
understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But
in poetry, it’s the exact opposite.” – Paul Dirac

This is a curious comment, intellectual to digest. If I had to guess, I’d say Dirac was a scientist, not a poet.
