A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
艺术家
Artist
If you're interested in any artist, go see them live. I always say that you should go see an artist live. That's an experience that only you and the people in the room can say that they have.
如果你对任何一位艺术家感兴趣，去看他们的现场表演。我总是说你应该去现场看艺术家。这是一种只有你和在场的人才能说他们有过的经历。
I was a visual artist primarily and a writer, even from a very young age. I wrote a lot of stories and poetry and... I had a desire to create always. And I always had a desire to show my work.
我是一个视觉艺术家和作家，甚至从很小的时候。我写了很多故事和诗歌……我一直渴望创造。我一直想展示我的作品。
Lucian Freud's career affirms that the only thing an artist can do is remain true to whatever vision, (lack of) talent, or ideas that happened to pick them in order to be made known to the world.
卢西安•弗洛伊德的职业生涯证实，艺术家唯一能做的就是忠于自己的愿景，(缺乏)天赋，或者那些碰巧选中他们的想法，以便让世界了解他们。
The trouble with being a ghostwriter or artist is that you must remain rather anonymously without credit. If one wants the credit, one has to cease being a ghost and become a leader or innovator.
代笔作家或艺术家的麻烦在于，你必须保持相当匿名，没有信用。如果你想要荣誉，你必须停止做一个幽灵，成为一个领导者或创新者。
The arts are not just instantaneous pleasure - if you don't like it, the artist is wrong. I belong to the generation which says if you don't like it, you don't understand and you ought to find out.
艺术不只是瞬间的快乐——如果你不喜欢它，艺术家就错了。我属于那一代人，他们说如果你不喜欢它，你就不明白，你应该去发现。
On the other hand, the artist has much to do in the realm of color construction, which is so little explored and so obscure, and hardly dates back any farther than to the beginning of Impressionism.
另一方面，艺术家在色彩结构领域有很多工作要做，这是如此少的探索，如此模糊，几乎可以追溯到印象派的开始。
I'm looking to evolve the concept of the new renaissance artist, taking the world by storm through the art of public display and demonstration, with technical savvy, using cell phones and computers.
我想要发展新的文艺复兴艺术家的概念，通过公共展示和演示的艺术，以熟练的技术，使用手机和电脑，席卷世界。
I'm not gonna say that I hate it, because I really respect Usher and I was influenced by him. But so many people compare me to him, and I don't think it'll ever stop. I just want to be my own artist.
我不会说我讨厌它，因为我真的很尊重亚瑟，我受他的影响。但是很多人把我和他做比较，我认为这不会停止。我只想做我自己的艺术家。
The art of an artist must be his own art. It is... always a continuous chain of little inventions, little technical discoveries of one's own, in one's relation to the tool, the material and the colors.
艺术家的艺术必须是他自己的艺术。它是……总是一连串的小发明，一个人自己的小技术发现，与工具，材料和颜色的关系。
I'm the artist formally known as Beck. I have a genius wig. When I put that wig on, then the true genius emerges. I don't have enough hair to be a genius. I think you have to have hair going everywhere.
我的正式名字是贝克。我有个天才假发。当我戴上假发，真正的天才就出现了。我没有足够的头发成为天才。我觉得你必须到处留头发。
The artist should fear to become the slave of detail. He should strive to express his thought and not the surface of it. What avails a storm cloud accurate in form and colour if the storm is not therein?
艺术家应该害怕成为细节的奴隶。他应该努力表达他的思想，而不是表面上的。如果风暴不在风暴云中，那么它的形状和颜色又有什么用呢?
I don't even like to talk about it. I hated being a number and not merely because I was a very small one. I let them bellow at me for just as long as it took me to find enough pluck to bellow back at them.
我甚至不喜欢谈论它。我讨厌成为一个数字，不仅仅是因为我是一个非常小的数字。我让他们对我吼叫，直到我找到足够的勇气对他们吼叫为止。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题，再读几句。
I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.
我是一个足以自由发挥想象力的艺术家。
I wanted nothing less than to be a fiction writer when I was a kid. If you had told me I would be an artist or novelist when I grew up, I would have laughed in your face.
当我还是个孩子的时候，我最想做的就是成为一名小说家。如果你告诉我长大后要当艺术家或小说家，我会当面笑话你。
I try to keep my ear to the streets without sacrificing who I am as an artist. If a song needs a drum machine I'll use a drum machine. If it needs a drummer, I'll use a real drummer.
我努力倾听街头的声音，而不牺牲自己作为艺术家的身份。如果一首歌需要打鼓机，我就用打鼓机。如果需要鼓手，我会用真正的鼓手。
A great artist is never poor.
伟大的艺术家从不贫穷。
An artist's only concern is to shoot for some kind of perfection, and on his own terms, not anyone else's.
艺术家唯一关心的是追求某种完美，而且是按照他自己的方式，而不是别人的方式。
I'm an artist, therefore I think I am sensitive to human pain.
我是一个艺术家，所以我认为我对人类的痛苦很敏感。
