Joseph C Zinker quotes:

Creativity is a celebration of life... I am here! I love life! I love me! I can be anything! I can do anything!

Creativity is a celebration of one's grandeur, one's sense of making anything possible.

Excellent anthology... a celebration of our goodness and our potential for growth. The sense of celebration is stretched by the beautiful photographs....

During those rare moments of creativeness, when a person has something in common with the making of the universe, he feels a sense of transcendence. What could be a greater reward?

The fact is that the creative person is a disciplined craftsman whose 'gift' is a reaching out toward his most profound personal potential.

Drawing or painting allows the artist to know himself as a whole person.

It is in [the] process of making something... that the creator contacts a concrete reality outside his subjective life and moves into the realm of the transcendent.

All creative activity begins with movement.

Art is prayer - not the vulgarized notations handed down to us in the scriptures, but a fresh vital discovery of one's own special presence in the world.

In the process of making anything, a person moves beyond personal expression to make something that stands by itself. The work acquires its own internal validity, its own integrity.
