I'm A Happy Man Because Whatever I'm

Life At Best Is Bittersweet.

I've Done My Job Extremely Well. My Only Beef Is That A Lot Of People Have Put Their Fingers In Whatever I've Done And Tried To Screw It Up, And I've Always Resented That.

I'm Not Interested In The Ego Trip Of Creating Or Not Creating. I'm Interested In Selling A Magazine. Rock-bottom, I Sell Magazines. I'm A Thorough Professional Who Does His Job.

Perfectionists Are Their Own Devils.

The Artist Is The Lowest Form Of Life On The Rung Of The Ladder. The Publishers Are Usually Businessmen Who Deal With Businessmen. They Deal With Promotional People. They Deal With Financial People. They Deal With Accountants. They Deal With People Who Work On Higher Levels. They Deal With Tax People, But Have Absolutely No Interest In Artists, In Individual Artists, Especially Very Young Artists.
