66: 2012-08-18: It is silly to call someone an "aspiring" writer or artist. Either you do it now with the tools you have or it's empty talk.

78: 2012-03-04: Spent 2 hours today writing a 45 second tune. http://t.co/F947q8nP
79: 2012-02-24: A successful actor gains all the glory of playing a script but none of the satisfaction of writing it.
80: 2012-01-11: I wonder how many students majoring in creative writing actually publish novels. What is the success rate vs. a placebo?

91: 2011-11-26: Writing and recording a song is a creative process. Performing it live is a religious one. People are worshipping the gods who made it.
92: 2011-11-25: @Olivia_Sarai: "I'd like you to write about science, you're brilliant in every topic" <== Indeed I am! But who would pay for such wisdom?

95: 2011-11-02: You can't claim you need funding to write a great song. For the words and tune, the budget is trivial. It's all up to you.
96: 2011-10-25: Songs don't write themselves—although sometimes they do!
97: 2011-10-23: "Musician" does not mean "creative". It only means you can play the notes. Creative is writing the notes.

105: 2011-05-08: The law tells you the speed limit. It doesn't tell you the speed where officers write tickets. That gap is where most of life is lived.

113: 2011-03-26: To be a writer, write! To learn photography, pick up a camera. If you are waiting to be taught, then you've already failed.
114: 2011-03-25: .@o6uoq "argh do you believe all this stuff you write?" <== Yes.
115: 2011-03-24: Benefits of the internet: instant, free information. Costs: gutting the livelihoods of writers and artists—so lower quality information.

126: 2011-01-17: The law consists not just of what is written but how courts have interpreted those words—called case law. That's where the real wisdom lies.
127: 2011-01-16: The spoken word is much more subtle and powerful than anything written, especially if you are talking to just one person in front of you.

133: 2010-11-28: A "home" is where you sleep, write, think, change clothes and store a limited cache of supplies. A dorm room is optimal, a house excessive.

138: KilroyCafe: 2010-08-27: Elvis supposedly changed music, but he wrote none of his own songs, so didn't the writers actually change music? Wasn't Elvis a fraud?
139: KilroyCafe: 2010-07-14: I'll wager that most of the graffiti on the walls of Graceland was written by people who weren't alive when Elvis was.

152: KilroyCafe: 2009-12-07: Why does everyone want to know about the actors? They would be lost without invisible writers creating the story and feeding them lines.
