We fail when we give up too soon.

The way I understand gifts is that the giver must make a sacrifice, create an uneven exchange, bring himself closer to the recipient, create change and do it all with the right spirit.

Nobody says, 'Yeah, I'd like to set myself up for some serious criticism!' And yet, the only way to be remarkable is to do just that.

If you can't make money from attention, you should do something else for a living.

Ideas in secret die. They need light and air or they starve to death.

Art is never defect-free. Things that are remarkable never meet spec, because that would make them standardized, not worth talking about.

The goal is to be on the hook, not to let someone else do the scary parts.
