My Favorite Quotes

Thought I'd share with you some of my favorite quotes that speak to me on so many levels. I notice a theme here. See if you can pick up on it:

"I have forced myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste." - Marcel Duchamp

"Rules are what the artist breaks; the memorable never emerged from a formula." - William Bernbach, co-founder of legendary DDB ad agency.

"I never had to compromise myself. It was always me, doing what was comfortable, and relaying the message that I didn't have to be taught to be creative and do good things. I guess what I'm saying is that I'm here and I want to be heard. I come from the streets, I painted on subways, and I feel my work is important. I want people to see it —I want to influence others." -Dondi White (aka DONDI - RIP)
