"When you see somebody who's got a complaining personality, it usually means that they had some vision of what things could be, and they're constantly disappointed by that. I think that would be the camp that I would fall into - constantly horrified by the things people do." - Daniel Clowes

"The first step - especially for young people with energy and drive and talent, but not money - the first step to controlling your world is to control your culture. To model and demonstrate the kind of world you demand to live in. To write the books. Make the music. Shoot the films. Paint the art." - Chuck Palahniuk


I chose these quotes in particular because they both speak to me, about me and for me. These are basically my thoughts out of someone else's mouth. I've always thought that if you truly want something, you and only you can make it happen. In a way, the two quotes correlate with each other. You visualize what things could be, and you get disappointed because what you thought doesn't meet your expectations, so instead of just thinking about that, you should go out and make it happen yourself.
