Originality

From Robert Henri, in The Art Spirit

"Don't worry about your originality. You could not get rid of it even if you wanted to. It will stick to you and show you up for better or worse in spite of all you or anyone else can do."

Compromise?

"Don't compromise, you're all you've got" - Janis Joplin


Who needs alot of money? It'll come....
