"For years that may mean imitation. Then, one day, it is like a door opening, and a new thought comes in. Why not try this instead. Suddenly he is doing something original, almost in spite of himself"
- Lukas Foss
About this Quote
This quote by Lukas Foss speaks to the innovative process. It recommends that imagination is a journey, and that it typically begins with imitation. We learn by copying the work of others, and gradually build up our skills and understanding. Ultimately, nevertheless, we reach a point where we can start to believe for ourselves and develop new ideas. This is the minute when creativity really starts, and we can begin to do something initial. It is nearly as if the imaginative procedure is something that occurs to us, rather than something we actively pursue. We can unlock to creativity, but it is eventually approximately our own minds to come up with something new and special.
