Michael J.A. Howe > Quotes

“Major creative achievements are only possible when an individual is able to concentrate more or less exclusively and for long periods of time, free from distractions and other concerns, and unconstrained by mundane worries and anxieties. Some kind of private space is necessary, providing a means of gaining privacy and isolation, and a degree of separation from the pressures of other people and their demands.”
