Daemon

Regarding the creative momentum that some call the effects of muse, others call associative though processes, others call simply inspiration, Rudyard Kipling--who called it Daemon--wrote;

"My Daemon was with me in the Jungle Books, Kim, and both Puck books, and good care I took to walk delicately, lest he should withdraw...When your Daemon is in charge, do not think consciously. Drift, wait, and obey."

Rudyard Kipling in Working Tools, 1937.
