'Negativity is the enemy to creativity. So if you want more ideas flowing, happiness in the doing, happiness in the doing, happiness in the doing. I love, capital L-O-V-E, building a thing that ultimately has to feel correct before it's finished, and that feeling correct is like a drug. It's like a thing that kicks you and makes you feel so good, You almost pass out. You fall off your feet.'
– David Lynch, to Melena Ryzik of the New York Times

David Lynch practices Transcendental Meditation (or TM). Means he sits down twice a day for twenty minutes, closes his eyes, and repeats a one word mantra in his head, a word that only he and his TM master knows.
It makes you feel good, apparently. I'm just saying...... :)
Oh and he claims that he's never missed a single meditation in something like 25 years.
I knew he was into TM - it's wrong to tag it Zen technically but it's very Zen, that quote. Made my day.
