Sorry, just not true.

Never understood why arts/creativity was an asset that people seem to need to believe is accessible to everyone. It isn't. To me it's kind of like saying "We're all chemists... we're all doctors, inside... Anyone can be a scientist".

Though I suppose that's a discussion for another thread.
Karl Marx's classic work on "Alienation" discusses man/woman's alienation from their own labour or, that which they have created.

I suppose it depends on how you choose to define creativity. We produce, we create.

Don't be sorry, it was just an idea he had.
