from Creativity
Many artists interviewed in this book agree that it is important to let problems simmer below the threshold of consciousness for a time. From the physicist Freeman Dyson
I am fooling around not doing anything, which probably means that this is a creative period, although of course you don't know until afterward. I think that it is very important to b e idle. I mean they always say that Shakespeare was idle between plays. I am not comparing myself to Shakespeare, but people who keep themselves busy all of the time are generally not creative. So I am not ashamed of being idle.
