Every attempt we make is imperfect; yet each one of those imperfect attempts is an occasion for a delight unlike anything else on earth.

Play cannot be defined, because in play all definitions slither, dance, combine, break apart, and recombine.

Technique itself springs from play, because we can acquire technique only by the practice of practice, by persistently experimenting and playing with our tools and testing their limits and resistances.

The easiest way to do art is to dispense with success and failure altogether and just get on with it.

The most potent muse of all is our own inner child.
