More quotes by Rodney Mullen
There's an intrinsic value in creating something for the sake of creating it.
Rodney Mullen
It puts a ceiling on your progress. You're blocked by your pride. To get good, you have to throw your board around and fall.
Rodney Mullen
The biggest obstacle to creativity is breaking through the barrier of disbelief.
Rodney Mullen
Vert skating was the kind of skating that was done in pools, where you could get airborne and be weightless. The other style, which is what I did, was called free style, which was tricks you could do on flat ground.
Rodney Mullen
Who are you? What is your distinct contribution? That is so valuable whether it gets you anything or not. Trophies? Doesn't matter. If you know you did it, that's what keeps you going, you know? Success is illusive.
Rodney Mullen

Rodney Mullen
Skateboarding is as much, or more, an art of mode of expression than it is a sport. What skateboarding has given me is precisely that: a form of expression that drew me to it, and, in so doing, I was able to express and be who I wanted to be through it, in a sense.
