Yes, influences are enriching, and they can be found in every work of art, even the most original.

Art is something you can't teach, but you can inspire it.

Art is essentially communication. It doesn't exist in a vacuum. That's why people make art, so other people can relate to it.

You can turn something into art just because of the way you tell people to look at it.

Art does imitate life, it has to come from somewhere. To put boundaries and limitations on it doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

Art is not a thing; it is a way.

Any form of art is a form of power; it has impact, it can affect change - it can not only move us, it makes us move.

You'd have to be completely crazy not to be influenced by and take from other artists. It's completely impossible not to.

Art is maybe a subversive activity. There is a certain rebellion when you are an artist at heart, even if only in the art of living.
