I've always said if what I'm going to create doesn't look good on everybody, I'm not going to do it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
All my life people have said that I wasn't going to make it.
I do think that I'm not good at making pretty things. It doesn't come so naturally for me.
I think I've realized that when you are aiming to create a real body of work, you are as much defined by the things you don't do as by the things you do.
I don't really look around and say, 'I've made it.' I just look around and think how fortunate I am to work with the people I'm working with.
You're not going to do good work if you're not choosing something because it inspires you.
The one thing I always think about when I don't get jobs is that it just wasn't yours. You don't want to do something that you're not right for because it won't make the production look good, and it won't make you look good.
If you can't make it good, at least make it look good.
I could never say I'm going to do bigger and better things because that would negate what I've already accomplished, and I don't want to do that.
If I'm creating a free-form piece of art, I can make it look like anything I want, and nobody will say it's wrong.
If you're creating anything at all, it's really dangerous to care about what people think.
