A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
艺术与艺术家
Art and the Artist
Art not only imitates nature, but also completes its deficiencies.
艺术不仅模仿自然，也弥补了自然的不足。
There have been makeup artists who've asked if my eyebrows are real.
有化妆师问我的眉毛是不是真的。
I'm having fun just being a musician as well as an artist at this point.
在这一点上，作为一名音乐家和艺术家，我很开心。
I also had this artist friend who'd paint butterflies and things like that on my head.
我还有个艺术家朋友，他会在我头上画蝴蝶之类的东西。
An artist has to take life as he finds it. Life by itself is formless wherever it is. Art must give it form.
艺术家必须接受他所发现的生活。生命本身无论在哪里都是无形的。艺术必须赋予它形式。
The test of the artist does not lie in the will with which he goes to work, but in the excellence of the work he produces.
对艺术家的考验不在于他怀着怎样的意志去工作，而在于他创作的作品是否出色。
I didn't really think about becoming a professional artist until high school, when I realized that everything else required too much math.
直到高中，当我意识到其他一切都需要太多的数学时，我才真正考虑成为一名专业艺术家。
I've been touring for so long, I've kind of honed into exactly what I am, I'm an artist so if you like it, you like it, if you don't you don't, you know?
我已经巡演这么久了，我已经磨练成了现在的我，我是一个艺术家，所以如果你喜欢，你就喜欢，如果你不喜欢，你就不喜欢，你知道吗?
I think another thing is that we don't really want exclusivity. We accept that it is in the artist's interest to be on sale in every place where they sell music.
我认为另一件事是我们并不是真的想要独占。我们承认，在每一个出售音乐的地方都进行销售符合艺术家的利益。
One thing that really appeals to me is this idea of music being a living thing that has an evolution that, in a way, enables the artist to sell a process rather than a piece of product.
我真正感兴趣的一件事是，音乐是一个有生命的东西，它有一个进化过程，在某种程度上，使艺术家能够销售一个过程，而不是一件产品。
