Here's another quote from Eames that unpacks the ideas squished into
Ziya's sig quote:

"The recognition and understanding of the need was the primary condition
of the creative act. When people feel they had to express themselves for
originality for its own sake, that tends not to be creativity. Only when
you get into the problem and the problem becomes clear, can creativity
take over."
-CHARLES EAMES

And here's another one on the same topic, just for the heck of it:

"He that will not apply new remedies must expect new evils; for time is
the greatest innovator."
- FRANCIS BACON
