"Rollo May, in his landmark study on creativity, The Courage To Create, gave a word to the central driving force of an artist's creativity: rage. Not inquisitiveness; not friendly upbeatness; not sociability; not cooperativeness; not outgoing personality; not charm; not professionalism. Rage. Now, he meant it not so much in a conventional sense, but as a creative fire. There is a direct connection between intense passion and creative brilliance."

I like that. It reminds me of the difference between anger and wrath. One is focused and expressed with intention and the other is just the feeling driving it all.
Interesting.Kelley. I never knew this distinction, just associated wrath with the Bible. Wrath of God, etc. Anger of God has nowhere near the same power.
