I don't want to listen to everybody's problems all the time. And I doubt anybody wants to listen to mine.

You cannot truly listen to anyone and do anything else at the same time.

I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen.

As far as I'm concerned, the whole point of making music is to get it heard by as many people as possible.

And it is easy to believe you are not good enough if you listen to everybody else.

If anyone has listened to my stuff over the years, they know I tend not to do the same thing twice.

There is nothing wrong with listening. You can listen to people; you can hear people's concerns. You can keep an open mind and still be perfectly strong.

If you listen too much, you won't be able to create.
