Some may respond to Neil Gaimans make good art speech, while others may prefer John Waterss call to arms to horrify and outrage others with their art. Which of these affirmations will you choose? n nEach quote is accompanied by a short bio of the speaker and stamped with the year and institution where the commencement speech was delivered. With advice from the likes of Abby Wambach, Angela Davis, David Foster Wallace, Oprah Winfrey, Spike Lee, Kanye West, and more, readers will be swept away by the wit and wisdom contained in this book--perfect for graduates, creative thinkers, or anyone seeking inspiration.n
