Quote by Malcolm Mclaren
I was taught that to create anything you had to believe in failure

I was taught that to create anything you had to believe in failure, simply because you had to be prepared to go through an idea without any fear. Failure, you learned, as I did in art school, to be a wonderful thing. It allowed you to get up in the morning and take the pillow off your head. – Malcolm Mclaren

Sid Vicious began the age of participation in which everyone could be the artist. Sid proved that you dont have to play well to be the star. You can play badly, or not even at all. I endorsed that attitude. If you cant write songs, no problem – simply steal one and change it to your taste. – Malcolm Mclaren
