A Quote by Jerry Seinfeld

I think of myself more as a sportsman than I do an artist. — © Jerry Seinfeld
I think of myself more as a sportsman than I do an artist.
I feel a real connection to Brooklyn, certainly, because I spent 20 years of my life there, but I don't think of myself as a Brooklyn artist any more than I think of myself as a male artist.
I consider myself more of an international artist than I do a one-territory artist, which I think is a blessing.
All people who are trying to say that only a sportsman should be appointed as an ambassador, I would like to differ from them. No need to think that only a sportsman can represent the country.
I don't consider myself a painter. I think of myself more as an artist who uses paintings rather than simply makes them. Especially with my latest pieces, the work may be informed by conversations surrounding the medium, but it's not in any way fixed or limited to them.
I don't sell anything. So, I have a personal image, but I think that's because I'm from an art background, and I'm an artist, and I think most artists do have personal images. I consider myself more in that category of the way an artist had a look.
I think I'm evolving, I'm always in search of bettering myself, how I can improve as a sportsman and as a person.
An artist is a person who thinks more than there is to think, feels more than there is to feel, and sees more than there is to see.
I never considered myself an artist. I aspire to be an artist, but I never thought I had the depth or substance or gift to be an artist. I do think I have some talent, but it doesn't go as far as being an artist.
A disputant no more cares for the truth than the sportsman for the hare.
I am more aggressive than others, being a sportsman.
I consider myself more a craftsman than an artist.
The idea of a talent that was bigger than an artist's ability to choose to use it, that would dictate the artist's life more than the artist could dictate, was interesting to me.
I regard myself as an entertainer much more than an artist.
I certainly see myself more as a craftsman than as an artist.
When the artist is truly the servant of the work, the work is better than the artist; Shakespeare knew how to listen to his work, and so he often wrote better than he could write; Bach composed more deeply, more truly than he knew, Rembrandt's brush put more of the human spirit on canvas than Rembrandt could comprehend. When the work takes over, then the artist is enabled to get out of the way, not to interfere. When the work takes over, then the artist listens.
Fishes do not roar; they cannot express any sound of suffering; and therefore the angler chooses to think they do not suffer, more than it is convenient for him to fancy. Now it is a poor sport that depends for its existence on the want of a voice in the sufferer, and of imagination in the sportsman.
