I came across this quote in the eclectic and always entertaining blog Swiss Miss and it's one of the ongoing themes of this blog, namely that there is a way we "know" things without being able to conceptualize or articulate them, and that way, though elusive, is the key to true creativity:
“Don’t think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It’s self-conscious, and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can’t try to do things. You simply must do things.”
- Ray Douglas Bradbury
