I'm Against The Idea That Rock Stars

I Really, Really Like Writing Songs. Capote Wrote Every Day. He Said That's The Only Way, You Have To Sit Down Every Day And Do It...something That's Written Out Is Okay, But It's Not Always A Clear Indication Of What A Person Means.

If I Had To Spend Equal Time Doing Paintings, And Equal Time Going To Galleries And Doing Art Business, And Equal Time Making Music, And Equal Time Going To Record Companies, Or To The Publicist Or To The Lawyer, Forget It. It Would Take Four Times As Long To Do All That Stuff. Unless I Had A Patron. That's Why Leonardo Da Vinci Was Successful. He Had The Medicis, Right?

Rock And Roll Is A Misconception. It Should No Longer Be A Term For Music.

To Be An Artist You Have To Be As Much A Businessman To Succeed, You Have To Spend An Equal Amount Of Time Doing Business As You Spend Doing Your Craft.

I Really Am Enjoying Writing More Than Ever. I Feel Like I'm So Much More Focused Than I Was In The Early Times.
