There are people who will appreciate what I've done, and there will be people who will criticize me. Ultimately history will have the final say.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Some will criticize me no matter what I do.
Condemn me. It does not matter. History will absolve me.
I'm very comfortable with where history will judge me.
I've been criticized for the things I chose and things I've chosen to do.
History will point out some of the things I did wrong and some of the things I did right.
When people criticise you, you've got to listen to that criticism, and to learn from it, which I've tried to do.
You are always going to have people criticizing, in one way or another, for their own personal reason.
History is written by the winners. My job as an artist is to speak up for those who might be perceived as the losers. Or those who can't shout.
If someone criticizes me, I strike back.
I don't care if people I admire criticize me because their opinion is valuable to me.
