Quote by Charles Horton Cooley

An artist cannot fail it is a success to be one.

An artist cannot fail it is a success to be one.

Summary

This quote suggests that simply being an artist is inherently a success in itself. It implies that the very act of embracing creativity and expressing oneself through art is enough to consider oneself successful. It highlights the idea that failure in the traditional sense does not exist for artists, as their mere presence and participation in the artistic realm is an accomplishment and a testament to their dedication to their craft. Ultimately, it celebrates the inherent value of being an artist regardless of any external measures of success or failure.
