In a speech given to the 1990 graduating class of Kenyon College,
Bill Watterson spoke about creativity: what it is and how to nourish and develop it. At one point he says, “If I’ve learned one thing from being a cartoonist, it’s how important playing is to creativity and happiness.”

“The more evolved an animal is, the more time it spends playing.”
– P.J. O’Rourke

“The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.”
– Carl Gustav Jung, (1875 – 1961)
