“The imagination of a good artist or thinker is productive continually, of good, mediocre and bad things, but his power of judgement, sharpened and practised to the highest degree, rejects, selects, knots together; as we can now see from Beethoven’s notebooks how the most glorious melodies were put together gradually and as it were culled out of many beginnings. […] All the great artists have been great workers, inexhaustible not only in invention but also in rejecting, sifting, transforming, ordering.”
— Friedrich Nietzsche, Human, All Too Human, 155
