Everything is gestation and bringing forth. To let each impression and each germ of a feeling come to completion wholly in itself, in the dark, in the inexpressible, the unconscious, beyond the reach of one's own intelligence, and await with deep humility and patience the birth hour of a new clarity: that alone is living the artist's life. Being an artist means not reckoning and counting, but ripening like the tree which does not force it sap, and stands confident in the storms of spring without the fear that after them may come no summer. It does come. But it comes only to the patient, who are there as though eternity lay before them, so unconcernedly still and wide.
-Rainer Maria Rilke
Guy Claxton's most successful book to date, critically and commercially, is Hare Brain, Tortoise Mind: Why Intelligence Increases When You Think Less (Fourth Estate, UK, 1997, HarperPerennial, USA, 1999). "It brought together for the first time a wide range of scientific evidence for the existence of 'the intelligent unconscious'. Very different from the wild, subversive unconscious of the Freudians, he showed that most of our everyday intelligence belongs not to the screen of consciousness, but to the invisible 'motherboard' behind it. " - Guy Claxton
