To fall in love is to create a religion that has a fallible

Summary

This quote suggests that falling in love involves creating a strong belief system with someone who is imperfect or capable of making mistakes. Just as followers of a religion have faith in a higher power despite its flaws, individuals who fall in love invest their trust and devotion in a person who may not always meet their expectations. It implies that love requires accepting the inherent imperfections of the other person and maintaining faith in the relationship, even when difficulties arise.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were able to connect experiences they've had and synthesize new things.
