An artist who supplies what others want stops being an artist
Drawn from what Oscar Wilde said
What Oscar Wilde actually said
- Oscar Wilde Irish poet, playwright and essayist (1854 to 1900)
Indeed, the moment that an artist takes notice of what other people want, and tries to supply the demand, he ceases to be an artist, and becomes a dull or an amusing craftsman, an honest or a dishonest tradesman.
