Technician Versus Performer/Quotes
"This may only be my theory... but speaking in broad terms, there are two types of manga artists who succeed in this world. One is the type of person who draws what they want to draw. To put it in rather negative terms they’re the ones who rely on natural instinct, or in positive terms they’re the "genius" type. The other type is the type of manga artist like you, Takagi, who creates a hit through calculation. And the one who has the chance of potential of creating a smash hit is by far the non-calculating person." —Akira Hattori, Bakuman。

Fodhron was a great blacksmith. I didn't have the gift, but I knew how to spot a master when I saw one. His artistry was not as powerful nor as instinctual as my father's, but he had an incredible precision and exactitude that made up for his weaknesses. —Jorun, Dwarves #6
