It’s Not Mine

Musician Jeff Buckley was interviewed by an Italian journalist two years before his accidental death and I came across excerpts of his musings on music and life that echo the sentiments of other creative people:

[What I want to communicate] doesn’t have a language with which I can communicate it. The things that I want to communicate are simply self-evident, emotional things. And the gifts of those things are that they bring both intellectual and emotional gifts — understanding…. It’s not my information, it’s not mine. I didn’t make it. I just discovered it.

[Thanks, Brain Pickings]
