“As an artist, you’re never happy with anything you do. It’s part of the process.”
Kate Bush (1958) British recording artist; singer, songwriter, musician and record producer
As quoted in "In conversation with Kate Bush" by Elio Iannacci in MacLeans (28 November 2016) https://www.macleans.ca/culture/arts/in-conversation-with-kate-bush/ <br class="br">Context: As an artist, you’re never happy with anything you do. It’s part of the process. You’re never really happy. I’m certainly not. That’s a good thing. It means you’re always striving to do better. You hope the next piece will be better.
Richard Epstein (1943) American legal scholar
