Those are usually distinctly separate jobs. The first of those, the critics, are, I think, largely disposable. The second, the editor, if really, really good, for a writer, is invaluable. The third, the artist, is absolutely indispensable.

If you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and be lost. The world will not have it. It is not yours to determine how good it is; nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep the channel open. You do not even have to believe in yourself or your work. You have to keep open and aware directly to the urges that motivate you. Keep the channel open. No artist is ever pleased. There is no satisfaction whatever at any time. There is only a queer divine dissatisfaction; a blessed unrest that keeps us marching and makes us more alive than the others."
