Great art tends to be a confession. This is the difference between good art and great art. Good art tells people what they don't want to hear. Great arts tell people what you (the artist) is most scared to say. If we were to capture everything that has ever been said in a confessional and harness it as creative inspiration for music, literature, poetry, screenplays and paintings, we'd have some goddamn great art. This takes a great deal of courage, though. It requires balls the size of Montana to be a villain on the canvas or page. But, this is why there are so few great artists.
