Caught up in life you see it badly. You suffer from it or enjoy it too much. The artist in my opinion is a monstrosity something outside of nature.

Doubtless there are things in nature which have not yet been seen. If an artist discovers them he opens the way for his successors.

I'm definitely a Polaroid camera girl. For me what I'm really excited about is bringing back the artistry and the nature of Polaroid.

The artist produces for the liberation of his soul. It is his nature to create as it is the nature of water to run down the hill.

It is the nature of the artist to mind excessively what is said about him. Literature is strewn with the wreckage of men who have minded beyond reason the opinions of others.

The Artist is he who detects and applies the law from observation of the works of Genius whether of man or Nature. The Artisan is he who merely applies the rules which others have detected.

I don't want to be an artist go on tour and make a video and wear sexy clothes. I would just love to make music.

If I had to play only for people who liked the music because they heard it on the radio it wouldn't make me happy. That's why I'm working so hard to have yes a profile as an artist but also a profile as a DJ.

Country fans need to support country music by buying albums and concert tickets for traditional artists or the music will just fade away. And that would be really sad.

Unless I am both capable of and willing to reopen the wound every time I write a song if I choose to not look inside myself to write music I'm really not worth being called an artist at all.
