Lyrics To Chew On From Bono & Co.
"It's no secret that a conscience can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret ambition bites the nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief
All kill their inspiration and sing about their grief."
-- U2

They should know. But I think it is both a bit of truth and untruth. And perhaps one may range over a continuum back and forth over the course of a lifetime.
Yeah. I think the potential is there for every artist to fall into the patterns they're describing, but do all artists fall into those patterns? And do they do so repeatedly? I don't think so.
