They are, but a key can be turned in two directions. Turn it one way and you lock resources away, even from those they belong to.

We must learn to be creative.\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e—Ken Robinson\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for OUT \u003ci\u003eof\u003c\/i\u003e OUR MINDS\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Ken Robinson writes brilliantly about the different ways in which creativity is undervalued and ignored . . . especially in our educational systems.\" \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e—John Cleese\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eOut of Our Minds\u003c\/i\u003e explains why being creative in today's world is a vital necessity.
