The problem with the way I think is that I obsess over solutions. I have a ruminative mind.

There's a common thread in all of us in our need and desire to play.

We all see things differently. Not everyone is going to love what we love and that's okay. Release your work to the world even if you don't feel it's done, even if you don't love it.

Why is it that children are so much better at play than adults? What changed? When did we become serious?

The more different types of hands-on learning that we do, the more we are capable of learning and doing because all of our skills are interconnected.

The convenient 'someday' never comes unless we make it a priority and dedicate the time.

Significant ideas can come when you give yourself time to play.

I think we all have this unrealistic expectation that everything we make should be good and perfect even when we're learning something new.

I find it really inspiring to just live in a dysfunctional crumbling city full of people who make things.

It's about the people you know, the community you build around you, and the relationships you keep close. That's what matters in life.

When someone asks you to do something you’ve never done say yes, smile, and then run away and freak out. And then figure out how to get it done.
