About This Quote
The act of creation fascinates me. You can only sit with blank page and wait. You cannot press a button, cannot program it. This quote by an amazing artist captures the idea that in order to create something you need to be patient and wait for the right moment to make something happen.
The idea of waiting is one of the most important ideas in creativity because when you wait for something to appear, it will appear in all its perfection. You can imagine whatever you want, but unless you sit down and wait patiently, your imagination will not come true. When you begin to see your goal in your mind, there will be no way to stop it because the idea has already begun to take shape in your mind.
