"Some people will love, some will hate. But it'll make you feel
something. And that, they tell me, is art. If that's failing, yes: I'm a
big, fat failure. And I hope to fail lots more just like it in the near
future."
"Don't be afraid to do weird stuff, so long as you do it cheaply and
cover everyone's bets. Be bold. Be stupid, if you have to: so long as
you don't hurt anybody, what's it matter how dopey your dream is? Some folks will try to shame you for trying something outside the
norm; the only shame is in not trying to accomplish your dreams.
People have been telling me I'm a failure and that I'm doing it all
wrong for 20 years now. Never trust anybody when they tell you how your
story goes. You know your story. You write your own story."
