I think there's a danger with any great art, that if you begin to test your ideas on other people, and get their opinions before making decisions, or if you pay too much attention to what other people say about what you create, that it really pollutes your expression.

However, I do respect, and I do pay attention to everyone's comments. And I do take them into consideration. But I don't base my decisions by it
