Sometimes I think it's the responsibility of the artist to reveal a little more of themselves.

I think an artist's responsibility is more complex than people realize.

Not all artists have a responsibility to be socially or politically aware, but they do have a responsibility to make great art. They have to find some truth and put that in their music.

I don't think any one person, whether artist or not, has been given permission by anyone to put the responsibility of the way things are on anyone else.

Part of being an artist is that you are always concerned you don't have what it takes. It... keeps us honest.

The artist is not responsible to any one. His social role is asocial... his only responsibility consists in an attitude to the work he does.

An artist cannot be responsible for what people make of their art. An audience loathe giving up preconceived images of an artist.

To some extent I happily don't know what I'm doing. I feel that it's an artist's responsibility to trust that.

Our responsibility as artists is to challenge ourselves.

There's a power in what we hold as artists, and part of that comes with responsibility... to share the human experience and really allow that to be seen.
