A quote for the artists & perfectionists out there

I ran across this quote today & I love it:

CREATIVITY IS ALLOWING YOURSELF TO MAKE MISTAKES. ART IS KNOWING WHICH ONES TO KEEP.

That's so true! When I shoot, I always strive for perfection in every image, but I also know that I am very, very human and prone to err (a lot!). Funny thing is...many times, I will run across one of my images that are not techinically perfect or break some kind of photographic "rule," but it ends up being a favorite. That, my friends, is the joy of art! :)
