You don't do the right thing because it's easy. You do it because it is right. - Rudy Ruiz

When you're a creative person the ideas come to you…it's learning how to discern between the ideas I have that are just fun and fanciful but will never go anywhere, and the ideas that I have that might appeal to others.

We can't forget our past. We must be vigilant of history's injustices and atrocities. No matter what stone we turn, there is a story to be found. Sometimes it lies in plain sight on the surface. Other times it is hidden deep underground. And, more often than not, the architects of a place's history have used the stone as a foundation upon which they've built a museum of illusions, an image of what they would like the truth to be, and how they would choose to see themselves—but also a structure that shadows and obfuscates the truth, leaving millions in the dark about their own proud histories.

I think we're all a little bit crazy. But once we figure that out, we can start doing something about it.
