Famous quotes containing the word creation:

    Humility like darkness reveals the heavenly lights. The shadows of poverty and meanness gather around us, “and lo! creation widens to our view.”

    Books choose their authors; the act of creation is not entirely a rational and conscious one.
    Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)

    Without culture, and the relative freedom it implies, society, even when perfect, is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future.
