A Quote by Eva Zeisel
To be different is a negative motive, and no creative thought or created thing grows out of a negative impulse. A negative impulse is always frustrating. And to be different means ‘not like this’ and ‘not like that.’ And the ‘not like’—that’s why postmodernism, with the prefix of ‘post,’ couldn’t work. No negative impulse can work, can produce any happy creation. Only a positive one.

When I was younger, based was a negative term that meant like dopehead, or basehead. People used to make fun of me. They was like, "You're based." They'd use it as a negative. And what I did was turn that negative into a positive. I started embracing it like, "Yeah, I'm based." I made it mine. I embedded it in my head. Based is positive.

You have to separate the negative into two categories - half of it is sensible, constructive things that has made us better.

Every positive thing in your life represents a single unique blessing. Every negative thing in your life has the opportunity to become a double blessing.

I just don't really get into all that sort of personal negative stuff.
