I have a suggestion for all of those award seekers and blue ribbon hunters. Spend your efforts on making art that connects with people. Awards impress the grandkids but they don't move the gauge on selling your product. Art needs to touch the emotions of the buyer.

When I say nothing, I say everything

The Bottom Line: If people don't LOVE our work, we will not be able to sell what we make.

I gave myself over to music and art a long time ago, so I don't get to relax and I don't get to sit still. The best I can do is constantly create my own environment so it benefits what I need to accomplish in the next step.

It is the pursuit of happiness that brings us happiness, and not the happiness achieved.

Do not trust people who call themselves musicians or record collectors who say that they don’t like Bob Dylan or the Beatles. They do not love music if those words come out of their mouths.

I love him (Muse) too much, and you can't hurt someone that you love that much . . . unless you're family.
