“ Art is a way of survival.”
“ Freedom of speech is a universal principle.” Art is a way of survival. Freedom of speech is a basic human right. I am not an artist, I am a human being. The most important thing is to be true to yourself. I think the only way to be free is to be free in your mind. “ I think the only way to be free is to be free in your mind.” “ I am not an artist, I am a citizen.” |
