    Neil Gaiman
    “And when things get tough, this is what you should do.

    Make good art.

Make good art. Somebody on the Internet thinks what you do is stupid or evil or it's all been done before? Make good art. Probably things will work out somehow, and eventually time will take the sting away, but that doesn't matter. Do what only you do best. Make good art.

    Make it on the good days too.”
