Art is one of the few places where you can put it in a constructive way where it won't burn you up inside or hurt anyone.
Eric DrookerMost visual artists, just like most writers, tend to be solitary. While they're doing the art, that is. They may have a crazy orgy that morning, but at a certain point they kick everybody out, and say: "Come, go home. Yeah, I had a great time too." And then you're alone again, and then you're freshly inspired and energized.
