The initiator    

Quote from post: "But initiating is rare and valuable and essential."

 

"I don't have any good ideas"

Quote from post: "It's your choice about whether or not you do anything with them [ideas], but please don't tell me you don't have any good ideas."

Quote from post: "If you have a book to write, write it. If you want to record an album, record it. No need to wait for someone in a cubicle halfway across the country to decide if you're worthy."
