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

I'm always looking at other artists and trying to get inspired by different things.

Actually, I don't think there's anyone that represents the artists, except the artists themselves.

There are artists, true performers that have come before me who have been a big inspiration to me. I hope I do the same for others.

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.

The artists of the past who impressed me were the ones who really focused their work.

There is always one or a few artists who appeal to all sort of people, and, of course, I want to be one of those people.

The individual - man as a man, man as a brain, if you like - interests me more than what he makes because I've noticed that most artists only repeat themselves.

The artists I look up to are the ones who push their own limits.

There are two kinds of artists in this world; those that work because the spirit is in them, and they cannot be silent if they would, and those that speak from a conscientious desire to make apparent to others the beauty that has awakened their own admiration.
