Quantity Cultivates Quality!
Quality is important but the conventional idea of Quality over quantity is not true in the sense of creating art and developing something, because an artist who has never written a song before doesn't yet good at writing songs by focusing on one song but going through the entire process over and over again. Quality is developed, and our works or projects need to be given the chance to develop into something that is Quality.
