The difficulty with old ideas

The Artdog Quote of the Week


Whatever our field of endeavor, we must grapple with the fact that anything we have thought of, someone else has too. But did they come at the thought the same way we did? Can we go deeper, look closer, find a new way of looking at the situation?

Creativity is at the very core of problem-solving, because only a new, creative melding of previously un-connected ideas can solve our most intransigent problems (except for those whose solutions we've known all along, and been afraid to apply . . . ).
