Making the simple complicated is commonplace; making the complicated simple, awesomely simple, that's creativity.
Nothing is so awesomely unfamiliar as the familiar that discloses itself at the end of a journey. - Cynthia Ozick
Creativity is more than just being different. Anybody can play weird-- that's easy. What's hard is to be as simple as Bach. Making the simple complicated is commonplace--making the complicated simple, awesomely simple--that's creativity. - Charles Mingus
