Artists that are perfectionists? We find it hard sometimes to be happy a lot.

So many artists try to be something that they're not.

Many artists give up after a while.

I love artists that just do what they do with so much passion and emotion.

Great artists are the ones who have put their entire selves out there to be adored, humiliated, to be picked at, cherished, all of those things, and haven't shied away from that.

I passionately hate the idea of being with it; I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.

I hate artists who are not of their time.

Musicians are probably the most uncomfortable people in themselves in the world. Happiness, I think, only exists when you're a child and once you go past 11, unfortunately it's gone.
