“Creativity doesn’t start with a blank page. It starts with the people, the place, the culture—it starts with context.”

“If you show somebody a piece of your work and you ask them 'What do you think?', they will probably say it's okay because they don't want to offend you.
Next time, instead of asking if it's right, ask them what's wrong.
They may not say what you want to hear, but the chances are they will give you a truthful criticism.”
