I'm somewhat of a perfectionist, I think, and I strive for perfection.
I don't think perfection is possible. I think you can attempt to reach perfection, but I don't think it's a possible thing. I think perfection is a moving point, and we spend our artistic lives chasing it.
I don't believe in perfection. I don't think there is such a thing. But the energy of wanting things to be great is a perfectionist energy.
Perfectionism attaches to what is valued in the culture.
It's all about perfection, isn't it?
