Sometimes it’s not the cheery, upbeat lessons that really explain how a person got to be where they are. It’s the things they failed at, the things they tried to do and couldn’t do. The things they’re still struggling to do. And even the artistic style, if you’re an artist, is often based on struggling to sound like your influences and failing, and through that effort finding your own voice. - Terry Gross
