David Lynch, on being an artist

Quote from the 2007 docummentary "Lynch (One)".

"Forget being the best of anything. That's the fruit of the action, and you do the work -they say- for the doing, not the fruit. You can never really know how it's gonna turn out in the world but you know if you enjoy doing it. And ideas start flowing and you start getting, you know, excited about stuff. Then you're having a great time in the doing and that's what it's all about. If you don't enjoy the doing, then do something else."

@stickybelvedere Ha-ha... Ok ok

@Sortsylic

Actually he meditates and his ideas come from profound spiritual experiences. You would never know unless you meditated, or at least explored what thats all about for yourself.

[Sortsylic]

@stickybelvedere Yeah it's nice to say "you don't understand". It makes you special. But I know more people who "understand" his drug influented shit than who do not

[stickybelvedere]

@Sortsylic overrated? i think its underrated... there are very few people that thinks his movies are actually good. Very few people actually understand what he does. You obviously dont

[Sortsylic]

@stickybelvedere Yes I do and all his "work" is overrated bullshit only except "Dune" but it's only 1/64 "his" work

[stickybelvedere]

@Sortsylic lol i will assume i know what you are trying to say. do you know who david lynch and what his work is all about?

[Sortsylic]
