7. Ted Talk “I believe this passionately: that we don’t grow into creativity, we grow out of it. Or rather, we get educated out of it.” “We are obsessed with getting people to college…but not everybody needs to go, and not everybody needs to go now.” “You were probably steered benignly away from things at school when you were a kid — things you liked — on the grounds that you would never get a job doing that: ‘Don’t do music, you’re not going to be a musician. Don’t do art, you won’t be an artist.’ Benign advice — now, profoundly mistaken.”
