Bob Dylan

"An artist has got to be careful never really to arrive at a place where he thinks he's "at" somewhere. You always have to realize that you're constantly in the state of becoming, you know? And, as long as you can stay in that realm, you'll sort of be all right. I can't self-analyze my own work, and wasn't going to cater to the crowd because I knew certain people would like it, and certain people didn't like it. I had gotten in the door when no one was looking. I was in there now, and there was nothing anybody from then on, could ever do about it."
