Perfection

After a paragraph illustrating the fact that a quantity of work often will lead to quality work, as well, using an example of a pottery class,  the authors say

"If you think good work is somehow synonymous with perfect work, you are headed for big trouble.  Art is human, error is human; ergo, art is error."

They also stress, as in Outliers, that talent is not necessarily the key to success.  That perseverance and quantity and work can be just as key.

"They why doesn't it come ealily for me?", the answer is probably, "Because making art is hard!"  What you end up caring about is what you do, not whether the doing came hard or easy."

(I'm using these constructs as applying to science, in my own case, not just artwork.)
