“I think my biggest fashion regret would be like every other young designer’s: trying to impress people you don’t even know when you’re first starting out. They will never hold a candle to you in your life, but you feel like you need them in order to get somewhere. Then, actually, you realize you don’t need anybody. It’s beautiful when someone appreciates your work and decides to help you—be grateful and focus on those great people. But don’t focus on those who aren’t necessarily bad people, but they’re just not part of your journey. Don’t waste your energy on things that aren’t meant to happen. Just work on yourself—be good at your craft, be very good at it. Go so big that they can’t ignore you.”

“I try to not have a message. Messages are for texting something (…) I don’t think any art is rightly done if it’s just delivering a message. That would mean the message is the real thing and the art is just sort of like cake decoration, fancy ornaments to make the message edible or pretty.

I think working on any practise of any art (…) you are opening yourself up to a mysterious force and to have a message in your mind all the time is going to block that force, and it cannot speak through you. And I think you have to trust it knows things much better than you do”

-Ursula Le Guin
