“Derive happiness from yourself, from a good day’s work, from the
clearing that it makes in the fog that surrounds us. Think that all
those who have succeeded,remembering the difficulties of their
beginnings, exclaim with conviction; “those were the good old days.”
For most of them: Success = Prison. And the artist must never be a
prisoner. Prisoner? An artist must never be a prisoner of [one’s]
self, prisoner of a style, prisoner of a reputation, prisoner of a
success, etc … Didn’t the Goncourt brothers write that Japanese arts of
the great period changed their names several times during their lives? I
like that: they wanted to protect their freedoms.”
