Good Artist Versus Bad Artist
“Pain
doesn’t make anything, nor does poverty. The artist is there first.
What becomes of him depends upon his luck. If his luck is good
(worldly-speaking) he becomes a bad artist. If his luck is bad, he
becomes a good one.”
Is that Charles Bukowski?
ReplyDeleteyes it is.
