"The difference between the almost right word and the right word is the difference between lightning bug and lightning bolt"

Mark Twain

Mike Posner referenced this Mark Twain quote when discussing the creative process and finding the perfect words/elements in songwriting. He was explaining how there's an internal knowing - a feeling when something is exactly right versus almost right, whether it's finding the right word in writing or the right snare drum sample in music production.\n\nThe quote illustrates the importance of precision and getting things exactly right in creative work, rather than settling for something that's close but not quite perfect.
