I studied political science and international relations, so I never considered myself an artist.

Being an artist doesn't mean that you're a good artist. That was the bargain I first made with myself: I'd say, I'm an artist, but I'm not really very good.

I can't really see myself as an artist. Now, to step out here and there, do it when I feel like it, that's a possibility. But for me to be a full-fledged, full-time artist in the industry, I don't think so.

It's really easy to project this whole ideology of what being an artiste is, and I'm just not down with intellectualizing it. I just think, if you feel like doing something, then do it.

I don't call myself an artist. I act. That's what I do.

To be an artist, you need to play inside your work.

I'm not looking to be an artist to make money. I'm looking to be an artist.

You just have to know that the more successful you get as an artist, the less of a normal life you have. It's a trade-off.
