Stewart Lee Zitate

I am not comparing myself to great artists, but when you see conceptual artists at work, on some level it's reassuring to know they can paint figuratively. Likewise, when you listen to the '50s jazz people who do these vast solos, you buy into it more if they open by playing a tune.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ich vergleiche mich nicht mit großen Künstlern, aber wenn man konzeptuelle Künstler bei der Arbeit sieht, ist es auf einer gewissen Ebene beruhigend zu wissen, dass sie figurativ malen können. Wenn Sie den Jazz-Leuten der 50er Jahre zuhören, die diese gewaltigen Soli spielen, kaufen Sie sich mehr ein, wenn sie sich öffnen, indem Sie eine Melodie spielen.

Serge Haroche

Music is still part of my life, but I hate the idea of people coming to see me play the guitar because they've seen me in movies. You want people who are listening to be only interested in the music.

There is a slight problem with being a conceptual artist these days: You won't get paid. But this levels the field and takes the art of money out of the field of serious art. The only conceptual artists who would conceive of making money on the Internet are a lowbrow species known as hustlers.

I see myself as a composer who plays music and likes to play with other people, and not just as a solo artist.

I want my music to be accessible to every listener because I know that I really have something to say in terms of really, you know, removing thorns from people, thorns that really makes us unaware that we are bleeding with these thorns, like pain, grief, jealousy and so on.

Vusi Mahlasela

A composition is always more than the sum of its parts. In other words, a really good piece of music is more than itself. It's sort of like a prism, which you can see from each facet a single totality.

Yo-Yo Ma

I try to physically and mentally immerse myself in whatever it is I am doing. That is good for me as an artist. I am always looking for that part that I have never done before, which makes it all the more difficult, because people want to hire you for what they've already seen you do.

You can't work in the movies. Movies are all about lighting. Very few filmmakers will concentrate on the story. You get very little rehearsal time, so anything you do onscreen is a kind of speed painting.

I wouldn't compare myself to any past Idol contestant, because I don't feel like I am like any of them. Maybe stories are cool but my story is different from most people's story. I don't like to compare myself to other people, I like to just be me.
