A lot of people are kind of depressed. I'm happy some of the time, and some of the time I'm not.
Elliott SmithI donโt think itโs important who I am. I really like playing music, but I donโt really want to be anything in particular.
Elliott SmithI liked the idea of a self-contained, endless pursuit of perfection. But I have a problem with perfection. I don't think perfection is very artful. But there's something I liked about the image of a skater going in this endless twisted circle that doesn't have any real endpoint. So the object is not to stop or arrive anywhere; it's just to make this thing as beautiful as they can.
