The wonderful news is that when a person with my lack of art background can be successful, then anyone can. I'm not super talented and had no art training. Nothing, nada, zip. No workshops or classes.

Selling is nothing more than ...

Selling is nothing more than asking questions and waiting for an answer.

Jack White 191 quotes

It is not the style but the q...

It is not the style but the quality and emotional impact of work that makes it marketable. Unless we make art that connects with people, we won't sell much, no matter what the style or subject.

I hate irony, particularly wh...

I hate irony, particularly when it is used because there isn't any message or to hide that someone hasn't any story to tell. Just like when someone only spews out a stack of cool words which don't mean anything and then has the gall to call it art. I always want to create a bridge between us and the listener, and I want it to be so that kids want to create for themselves a story or a context of the words.

It's hard for me to play seat...

It's hard for me to play seated theaters because people tend to sit down and get a little bit complacent, so it's less energy. It's just very dry and dead. People start to feel like they're watching a movie. The environment when they walk into it, it's not standing room only, smoking and drinking and rock 'n' roll. So it's a little bit dangerous to do that.

It seemed like there was no c...

It seemed like there was no control over it. I think certain things just popped. God was blessing us in telling us that certain things were going the way they were supposed to go.

I believe I am a better director than actor. I enjoy acting if the part is right. Directing comes very naturally to me. I enjoy it. I am very confident in my work.

Vinyl survived, we managed no...

Vinyl survived, we managed not to kill it. Knowing that you’ve taken part in this fight... You can’t imagine the happiness it brings. Every time I see a kid going out of the store with a vinyl record under the arms, my heart beats faster. Music should only be this. An intense emotion.

Jack White 191 quotes

The price we sell things for ...

The price we sell things for is not important. What is important is we sell art that has to be replaced. You become good in art by doing art. The more you sell, the more you must produce.

I am a commercial artist because I paint to earn a living. We who earn money from what we produce are all commercial artists.

Punk is an attitude, not a ge...

Punk is an attitude, not a genre, age group, or time period. What's interesting is trying to define the blues and punk in different ways. They are very close cousins.

Jack White 191 quotes

As an artist, you take things...

As an artist, you take things from your environment, and there's going to be a style coming out of your environment.

Jack White 191 quotes

What you think is fake in you...

What you think is fake in your head comes off as not enough on camera, a lot of times. You almost have to overdo it, in this overly, sort of Broadway, large-gestures kind of way to come off as being realistic on camera. It's strange. You almost have to act really fake to come off looking real.

Jack White 191 quotes

If you're asking if I would b...

If you're asking if I would be foolish enough, or insulting enough, to write about people in my life that I respect and sell it to the masses as a "break-up song," I can't imagine doing that to people I love.

Jack White 191 quotes

It's funny because when you d...

It's funny because when you do become successful, you're forced to look backwards and try to crawl back into the womb where you first started to create.

Jack White 191 quotes

I would never be able to live...

I would never be able to live in a huge city. I'd feel like one of 100,000 people doing the same thing.

You need a little resistance-something to fight against.

Jack White 191 quotes

Well you're in your little room
and you're working on something good
but if it's really good
you're gonna need a bigger room
and when you're in the bigger room
you might not know what to do
you might have to think of
how you got started sitting in your little room

Jack White 191 quotes

I think I've been a good boy ...

I think I've been a good boy long enough and given everyone around me a fair piece of the pie as far as all of the fleeting glory and reward that comes from the heavens - or the music press, whatever you want to call it.

Jack White 191 quotes

I think that most people, and...

I think that most people, and by people I mean journalists, think that I pre-conceive everything and that I spend my afternoons dreaming up self-mythologizing points of interest.
