“Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water.”

“Growing your own food is like printing your own money.”

“Don't wait for someone to green light your project, build your own intersection.”

“What nevertheless subsists is the desire of an absolute ideal form, a form which can adapt itself to any setting and to any scale.”

“China might seem quite successful in its controls, but it has only raised the water level. It’s like building a dam: it thinks there is more water so it will build higher. But every drop of water is still in there. It doesn’t understand how to let the pressure out. It builds up a way to maintain control and push the problem to the next generation.”

“And he said grow some funk of your own amigo,
Grow some funk of your own.
We no like to with the gringo fight,
But there might be a death in Mexico tonight
If you can't grow some funk of your own amigo.”

“Give yourself freedom to try out new things
Don't be so set in your ways that you can't grow.”

“Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.”

“Don't post for the sake of likes and retweets, post to build relationships with your audience.”

“People don't change. If anything, you get more set in your ways as you get older, not less”
