It gives me great pleasure indeed to see the stubbornness of an incorrigible nonconformist warmly acclaimed.

Being stubborn can be a good thing. Being stubborn can be a bad thing. It just depends on how you use it.

The distinction between the past present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.

My mother was passionate. She was stubborn the dominant one in the family. She dominated my father.

I went to my dad when I was 17 and said 'I want to be a country music star.' Which every dad loves to hear. And he said 'I want you to go to college.' So we had a discussion. And I'm pretty stubborn. I'm a lot like him. And he said 'If you go to college and graduate I'll pay your first six months of rent in Nashville.' So he bribed me.

I'm definitely open to change but at the same time I am quite stubborn.

Stubborn and ardent clinging to one's opinion is the best proof of stupidity.

It's high time for the art world to admit that the avant-garde is dead. It was killed by my hero Andy Warhol who incorporated into his art all the gaudy commercial imagery of capitalism (like Campbell's soup cans) that most artists had stubbornly scorned.
