Doing Your Own Thing Quotes

“There's no greatest moment in the arts. It's a life; it's a continuity thing. You can't have a great moment because it's spiritual. It's a belief; it's a calling. If you're an artist, doing your own thing on your own, it's while you're doing it that counts. It's a process. If you get too elated, you can get too depressed.”

It boils down to doing your own thing, feeling the vibe, ego-trip, blowing your mind.”
