This was from a Starbucks cup. I thought it quite fitting.
"My father said being an artist was the shortest road to the poorhouse, claiming real work is something you don't like. I gnored him through oppositional, later reasoning that only an idiot sets out to find the poorhouse, not to mention devote himself to something he doesn't love. Instead, I discovered an interesting back road to the unknown, and delibiberately without a safety net."
