I believe in the idea that if you really do the hell out of something, you can make up for a lot of shortcomings. Quantity and spirit can substitute for quality in almost all artistic pursuits.

Here's Bill Withers on selling out: “Sellout… I’m not crazy about the word. We’re all entrepreneurs. To me, I don’t care if you own a furniture store or whatever – the best sign you can put up is SOLD OUT.”

Ah, that's the guy who designed my favorite typeface. I once ran a weekly newspaper that was about 70% Etna. It's a fabulous family, lots of character (and characters - heh) while still crazy versatile.
