When my fellow X-Men and I are not trying to save the world from catastrophe, I am teacher of History, Botany, and Horticulture. I thought this quote seemed an appropriate addition on the subject of creativity.

"It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge." Albert Einstein

That is a great quote @Ororo Munroe. I'm sure you're a great teacher.
Here is one of my favorites.

"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge in limited to what we know and an understand, while imagination embraces the whole world, and all there will ever be to know and understand."
Albert Einstein

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles; or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and blood; who strives valiantly, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows the high triumph of achievement, and who, at the worst, if he he fails, fails at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."

The Man in the Arena, an excerpt from a speech by Theodore Roosevelt,
at the Sarbonne, Paris, France, April 23, 1910

    @Lucy ... don't know if you really want wolf spiders in your home... I'd go for jumping spiders, they can't bite... wolf spiders are the fast movers, and they can bite.

    ((Will lose my ACP internet towards the end of the month, unless anyone knows about it ending sooner. Trying to switch my Lifeline phone to a better provider that doesn't shut me off after four and a half gigs of data, nothing but failure so far and "call here" and "it's on their end" and the back and forth crap... in the morning, it's time to demand the supervisor and might even get to harsh language (after three days of that). I plan to use the Lifeline phone tethered as Internet source, share that to my own router... I've done it before (it's messy, and not 100% effective, but it works). ))

    ((The 'net is the main way to apply for jobs now, so I need that, and I've moved/changed Lifeline providers before without an issue, so no idea what the problem is. I have active Verizon through ACP, active Lifeline through Airtalk... is that somehow the issue? If anyone knows, please let me know before I tear someone a new one (ya know what I mean). After three days of this, and two days about a month ago, I'm ready to walk there with katana in hand.))
