WORDS TO CONSIDER

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones 
to keep. 
Scott Adams

Every artist was first an amateur. 
Ralph Waldo Emerson

The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work. 
Emile Zola

Works of art, in my opinion, are the only objects in the material universe to 
possess internal order, and that is why, though I don't believe that only art 
matters, I do believe in Art for Art's sake. 
E. M. Forster

I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is 
more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles 
the world.
Albert Einstein 

To an engineer, good enough means perfect. With an artist, there's no such 
thing as perfect. 
Alexander Calder
