If you identify yourself as being only either creative or scientific, you're doing yourself a big disservice. I mean, there's a lot of brain cells in the human skull that are capable of all manner of analysis, creativity, deduction, inference.

I think the best scientists are creative, and the best creative artists have some logical, rational side to them that can bring some sense of meaning and order to what they're doing. At some level, they don't have to lead with it, but it's there.

You look at a Van Gogh painting, very far from what is representational painting. Of course, it's impressionist, but there is structure there. It's not just completely random stuff coming out of him without him looking. He's thought this through.

I'd like to see all discussion of left brain, right brain— I don't think that. I'd like to see that just go by way of extinction. I want to see that go extinct as a way of thinking about what your human potential is.

We all have brains; we all have brain habits, or however we split the brain to decide where you're going to be dominated and where you're not. Develop it all and watch what comes out.
