ALEXANDER SILBER

“Technology can only enhance the human experience if we’re in touch with who we are and what we believe… otherwise we’re engaging without meaning.”

“Success is not about what you do. It’s about how you feel about what you do.”

“In the first 90 minutes of my day, I’ve gotten all of my creative chores out of the way [writing, warming up vocally], so that I spend the rest of my day ready if a door opens up.”

“Making something that didn’t exist in the world until you put it there is the reason for being alive.”

“It’s creating relationships that are business relationships and they can be monetized, but they come from someplace real.”

“If it is authentically defined, you can always tell… if it is, the consumer responds to it from an authentic place themselves.”

“I found that I wasn’t as much as a performer as I am a creative being… for me, my life purpose is about engaging with the act of innate creativity on a daily basis. I was lucky that I found that in writing.”

“There’s only two options here: there’s curl up and die… the other option was, in the face of this tragedy, to really live and have a big adventure.”

“Early success did really set me up for some tough lessons later.”

“Every human being in the world struggles with the feeling that what they have to say and offer the world is somehow not enough… whatever industry, whatever art form.”
