The first part sounds like a play on the Picasso quote &quot;All children are artists. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up&quot;[1] and the second half sounds like something Ken Robinson said in his TED talk about creativity[2].<p>What&#x27;s interesting about the underlying implications of all these quotes to me is that what makes a good physicist, a good artist, or a good anything, is the unabashed curiosity, a willingness to experiment without being stopped by fear of failure, and the state of play that one must be in to unleash creative approaches and new connections.<p>[1]<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.brainyquote.com&#x2F;quotes&#x2F;quotes&#x2F;p&#x2F;pablopicas169744.html#BdyV1r9X3k6UIFJP.99" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.brainyquote.com&#x2F;quotes&#x2F;quotes&#x2F;p&#x2F;pablopicas169744....</a>
