«TO BE AN ARTIST IS TO FAIL — S.B.»
“Samuel Beckett. I wrote that down, literally on my first day here […] I wrote that down ‘cause, frankly, I was staring into an abyss that I though was unclimbable, and the prospect of failure was looming large. When I started this job, it was terrifying. It was: you will fail. You are Young. And Foolish. And look Stupid. You take that into your day and you can take a risk on it, you know?” — Matt Smith in Esquire Magazine (September 2012)
