From Hugh MacLeod’s Ignore Everybody and 39 Other Keys to Creativity:

Art suffers the moment other people start paying for it. The more you need the money, the more people will tell you what to do. The less control you will have. The more bullshit you will have to swallow. The less joy it will bring. Know this and plan accordingly.
