Quotes About Artist

Do you think integrity is the monopoly of the artist? And what, incidentally, do you think integrity is? The ability not to pick a watch out of your neighbor's pocket? No, it's not as easy as that.

Come un artista il quale, pur consapevole del fatto che la sua carriera non è finita, che bisogna andare avanti, che niente è mai acquisito, sa di avere al suo attivo un'opera, almeno una, che nonostante tutto gli consente di dormire tranquillo, perché il futuro sarà quel che sarà ma per lui i giochi sono fatti e vinti.
