Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of finding a balance between passion and rationality in the creative process. It suggests that ideas and concepts should be born from intense passion and enthusiasm ("conceived with fire in the soul"), while the actual execution of these ideas should be done with a calm and focused mindset ("executed with clinical coolness"). It highlights the idea that being too driven by emotions without rational thinking may hinder the successful completion of a project, whereas being too detached and clinical may suck the life out of it.
