"[Y]ou will never be an artist if you don't finish your work. It sounds so simple, and so obvious, and it is. But it's also true: You will never become an artist if you don't spend every day being an artist.
Talent is sexy. Work is not. Only one, however is actually essential. Your career begins if you have the former. But it's finished if you don't do the latter."
–– Hanya Yanagihara (b. 1974), American writer and editor
