A quote I think about a lot, from Peter Schjeldahl writing about the painter Luc Tuymans:
“[Tuymans says] ‘It’s like I don’t know what I’m doing but I know how to do it, and it’s very strange.’ Now, that—uncertain ends, confident means—is about as good a general definition of creativity as I know.”
