About This Quote

I am no longer afraid of becoming lost, because the journey back always reveals something new, and that is ultimately good for the artist. The idea of being lost in a place where you can never return sounds awful but is actually quite freeing. And if you don’t know where you are going, who cares where you are? This quote is a great reminder that it is not necessary to always try to find a perfect path, but rather find your own way by doing what interests you. Finding yourself may be a little bit scary, but the world would be a much worse place without artists.
