It's a tough pill to swallow, but if I was going to stand for something as an artist, and every time that had consequences I decided not to do it, that'd be pointless. I have to listen to people, and I always try to meet people with understanding.

A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both.

We used to want our artists to be cigarette-smoking bohemian outsiders who were gonna take risks that the rest of us wouldn't.

You don't hear no artists from Compton showing vulnerability.

When you delegate something to a subordinate... it is absolutely your responsibility, and he must understand this. You as a leader must take complete responsibility for what the subordinate does.

Leadership consists of nothing but taking responsibility for everything that goes wrong and giving your subordinates credit for everything that goes well.
