“The positive thinker, on the contrary, constantly sends out positive thoughts, together with vital mental images of hope, optimism and creativity. He therefore activates the world around him positively and strongly tends to draw back to himself positive results. This, too, is a basic law of mind action.” WorldMindActionTogetherLawResultsCreativityPositiveDrawsOptimismContraryThinkerPositive ThoughtsPositivelyActivatePositive ResultsPositive Thinker Book:The Positive Principle Today Source: The Positive Principle Today
“Artists with the lack of proper education and experience of working from life will copy whatever is visible on the photograph, without knowing what's underneath. As a result, instead of creating the in-depth and full of character portrait, they draw a mask with no soul.” SoulCharacterArtistResultsKnowingCreatingDrawsDepthPhotographVisibleMaskCopiesPortraitsPortraiture Author:Igor Babailov
“If you're too sloppy, then you never get reproducible results, then you never get reproducible results, and then you never can draw any conclusions; but if you are just a little sloppy, then when you see something startling, you nail it down. So I called it the "Principle of Limited Sloppiness".” IfsLittlesResultsPrinciplesDrawsConclusionNailsSloppySloppiness Author:Max Delbruck

“Good resolutions are useless attempts to interfere with scientific laws. Their origin is pure vanity. Their result is absolutely nil.

“Saturday morning cartoons do that now, where they develop the toy and then draw the cartoon around it, and the result is the cartoon is a commercial for the toy and the toy is a commercial for the cartoon. The same thing's happening now in comic strips; it's just another way to get the competitive edge. You saturate all the different markets and allow each other to advertise the other, and it's the best of all possible worlds. You can see the financial incentive to work that way. I just think it's to the detriment of integrity in comic strip art.” ThinkingWorldWayArtDifferentResultsMorningIntegrityDrawsHappeningsFinancialEdgesComicToysSaturdayCartoonIncentivesAnother WayComic StripsSaturday Morning Author:Bill Watterson
