Practising creativity

July 30, 2009 By Clare Leave a Comment

“I can’t believe that!” said Alice.

“Can’t you?” the queen said in a pitying tone. “Try again, draw a long breath, and shut your eyes.”

Alice laughed. “There’s no use trying,” she said. “One can’t believe impossible things.”

“I dare say you haven’t had much practice,” said the queen. “When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”

Have been thinking a lot lately about whether creativity can be practiced and improved… Love this quote from Lewis Carroll’s ‘Through the Looking Glass’ which I stumbled across while enjoying the Anecdote blog.
