Creativity is the result of renunciation on the journey of spiritual enlightenment, not of a thirst for glory or personal pride.

Ray Mancini
About This Quote

 "Renunciation is the key to creative genius. It is the key to spiritual enlightenment. But renunciation alone will not bring you the creative power you hope for. You must make a choice: Should I live by my desire, or create something new and different, even if it means renouncing my desires?" --  "Creative Genius: The Spiritual Power of Renunciation" by Jiddu Krishnamurti
