A Quote by Nick Cave
The work ethic at art school is completely different than the work ethic amongst people who get into music. People who paint, it's an honorable thing to spend all day and all night in front of your canvas - that is the romantic vision of the painter.

Even if you're a big producer on a movie set, or whatever, it's a lot harder to be a pro than be a baby on your crew.

I think that everybody has hard work side, no matter what your job is, you have bad days, you have people you don't get along with.

And you can't really have an off day because that will be the only experience they have with you.
