The deeper the truth in a creative work, the longer it will live.

The monotony and solitude of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind.

Creative people have to be fed from the divine source. I have to get fed. I had to get filled up in order to pour out.

Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits.

I leave the genre labeling to other people. I really do. If I were to think too hard about it, that would stifle you creatively. If you think too hard about who other people want you to be as an artist, it stops you from being who you want to be as an artist.

Groups break up because they never got across what they wanted to do personally, and they have creative differences, and egos start to clash.
