A person has to be comfortable in his or her own skin.
Be confident enough to show your true self to the world.

The greatest moments of creativity come in absolute solitude, when one’s mind is free from distraction and able to probe the depths of the impossible.
I admit to being prone to deep thinking, which – given that I’m emerging from dark times – can take me to some very sombre or profound places. But this is no bad thing. I always resurface wiser and wi...
Individuality and creativity are slowly dampened by a normal job with normal people.
