The hubris of creativity
Where’s your permit?
Who said you could try to solve this problem?
I don’t get it…
That’s too original.
It’s not original enough.
You missed a comma.
That’s not funny.
That’s been done before.
That’s never been done before.
It’s not your best work.
None of us are authorized to solve interesting problems.
And there are no guarantees.
Do it anyway. Generous creativity is the only way things can get better.
