Quote by Laurie Anderson
I've never really had a hobby, unless you count art, which the IRS once told me I had to declare as a hobby since I hadn't made money with it.

Summary
In this quote, the speaker acknowledges not having a conventional hobby apart from their passion for art. They humorously recall the time when the IRS classified their art as a hobby due to not generating income from it. The quote implicitly raises questions about our societal tendency to prioritize monetary gain and how a personal passion or creative pursuit can be dismissed or devalued if it doesn't fit traditional metrics of success.
