"The work we do in this world, especially as creators, is not just a means of earning a paycheck. It is a means of doing the thing the creator God made us to do." [15:08]
"Creation is not a product, it's a project, and I'm drafting you into service to take this world and fill it with great things that make this world more beautiful and more useful for your fellow humans." [16:04]
"You don't actually have to do the actions, you don't actually have to close the open loops in order for your brain to let them go you just have to externalize them in a single system, outside of your brain, that you know you're gonna come back to you within a reasonable period of time." [25:20]
