“Regulation has nothing to do with setting standards; it meant putting rules in place that worked in favor of a few.”
Samanta Schweblin, Kentukis

“Creativity flourishes with practice, collaboration, and a willingness to embrace failure—not as a personal shortcoming, but as a challenge to the systems that tell us our ideas must be perfect or profitable to matter.”
Frankie Saturn, You Are Creative: Free Yourself to Free the World
