I just thought, in theory, that the artist type is supposed to work vigorously all the time.

To me, the paradigm was always someone like Man Ray, or Miles Davis, or John Coltraine, or Duke Ellington.

These people who just kind of relentlessly hammered away at it.

Henry Miller wrote, painted, spoke, and I thought that was the job.

I still do.
