then it is time for me to change my mind.

Kate Spade

#11. I drew the same things that most boys drew - airplanes and cars and fire engines. Then later on I discovered comic books, and I began to create my own comic stories. I was a comic writer, even when I was five or six years old. I would just make up stories because I thought it was fun.

Meredith Monk

#30. I didn't really know how to make a film when I made 'Control'. I had to create my own language, just as I did when I started taking photographs. I never studied either one.

Idris Khan

#39. All I can do is try to create my own brand and have people appreciate me for that.

Kevin Hart

Drew Barrymore

#41. I love it when a photographer lets me create my own movement and feeling to the images. By that I mean he doesn't restrict me in his or her own ideas but rather gives me a direction and lets me work within those boundaries freely.

#57. I started learning everybody's riffs, from Donny Hathaway to Jeffrey Osborne to James Ingram. That helped me create my own style of singing.

Regina King

Jay-Z

#66. I'm quite glad I never learned to play the guitar, because I think I'd write songs that were more classically structured. As it is, I've had to create my own way of writing, which isn't typical. Everything's a big crescendo.

Christopher Heyerdahl

#79. I write for the kid in me ... Often when I'm working on a story, I'll find myself laughing at something my characters have done, or even being surprised at where they've taken the story.

Dan Ariely

#81. From my own experience, I want to say that you should follow your heart, and the mind will follow you. Believe in yourself, and you will create miracles.

#83. No matter how hard they try, they'll never create anything so perfectly beautiful as what plays out in my own imagination.

Richelle E. Goodrich

#84. The accidents are things that audiences always remember most, I've found on my own movies. The things that they like the most are the things that were just by accident. So you have to create a situation where nothing but accidents can happen the entire time.

Kehinde Wiley

#90. When I write fiction, I create characters whose views are not my own, and I allow them to be eloquent in defense of their, not my, views.

#92. I never want to produce anything that a family could not enjoy together. I never want to create art that would embarrass my own children later.

Clay Aiken

#93. With the Larry Bertlemann portrait, I started with a photograph that I could use for it. I built the drawing's identity to serve as a graphic identity. After a number of sketches, I went into my own abstract vernacular of drawn lines and shapes to create the composition for the poster design.

John Van Hamersveld

#94. My life hasn't been conventional and it hasn't been linear. I've had to make it up as I've gone along, which has taught me a lot. If you don't accept the obvious options that are laid out for you, it's up to you to work out where you're going and to create your own specific rules and goals.

Bruce Davison

#99. I struggled to learn basic skills, get a grip on markets, find my own unique voice, create story lines and come up to speed with the industry. I struggled for ten years before having any success.
