manifesto

My sister and I are collaborating on a site (more on that later), and we've been brainstorming a bit about what will be included, as well as the look and spririt. It made me think of Jonathan Adler's brilliant manifesto. I have long been a fan of Jon Adler's pottery and textiles. I love his mix of the graphically beautiful

and the campy kitsch.

His manifesto is great. Some gems:
We believe handcrafted tchotchkes are life-enhancing.
We believe in dorky enthusiasm.
We believe colors can't clash.

What would go on your manifesto?
