Art Is Like Masturbation. It Is Selfish And Introverted And Done For You And You Alone. Design Is Like Sex.

My dear,

Art is like masturbation. It is selfish and introverted and done for you and you alone.

Design is like sex.

There is someone else involved, their needs are just as important as your own, and if everything goes right, both parties are happy in the end.

Falsely yours,
Colin G. Wright
