~ William Gibson On the whole, human beings want to be good, but not too good, and not quite all the time.
~ George OrwellDon't think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It's self-conscious, and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can't try to do things. You simply must do things.
~ Ray Bradbury

~ Isaac Asimov
