Quote

You mustn't expect me to repeat myself. My past doesn't interest me. I would rather copy others than copy myself. In that way I should at least be giving them something new. I love discovering things.

Go and do the things you can't. That is how you get to do them.

The revolutionary artist does not only focus on the negative aspects of capitalist lives, but also creates visions of a revolutionary future.
Pablo Picasso

The more technique you have, the less you have to worry about it. The more technique there is, the less there is.
