"If I create from the heart, nearly everything works; if from the head, almost nothing."
---Marc Chagall (1887-1985), French painter
"If you understand the strands of your creative DNA, you begin to see how they mutate into common threads in your work. You begin to see the story that you're trying to tell; why you do the things you do (both positive and self-destructive); where you are strong and where you are weak (which prevents a lot of false starts); and how you see the world and function on it."
---Twyla Tharp, American dancer, director, and choreographer
I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.
