Life, the Creative Way.

"Don't take it all too seriously. If you want to live your life in a creative way, as an artist, you have to not look back too much. You have to be willing to take whatever you've done and whoever you were and throw them away. What are we, anyway?

Steve Jobs
Founder, Apple
