Start copying what you love. Copy copy copy copy. At the end of the copy you will find your self.'-Yohji Yamamoto - Austin Kleon

"Be ambitious. Keep yourself busy. Think bigger. Expand your audience. Don't hobble yourself in the name of "keeping it real," or "not selling out." Try new things. If an opportunity comes along that will allow you to do more of the kind of work you want to do, say Yes. If an opportunity comes long that would mean more money, but less of the kind of work you want to do, say No."

It is not the experience of today that drives men mad. It is remorse or bitterness for something which happened yesterday or the dread of what tomorrow may bring.

Whenever Picasso learned how to do something, he abandoned it.
