I wonder how I understand this words "find one's way" Creativity is strange in that it finds its way in any kind of situation, no matter how restricted, just as the same amount of water flows faster and stronger through a narrow strait than across the open sea. ---- "Creativity finds its way in any kind of situation" means "Creativity manifests itself in any kind of situation"?

Let me try this again. (The previous answer was intended for another question.) Yes, you could interpret the passage as you suggest, I believe. The writer's additional remarks may also provide insight into the intended meaning.

In American English, the single quotation marks in an instance such as this would only occur if the entire passage were itself a quotation, in other words surrounded by double quotation marks. In other words, single quotation marks enclose quotations within quotations. It is different in other English-speaking countries.
