"Crow"ing

All right, so you failed. You failed, you failed, you failed. You failed, you failed, you... You think I care about that? I understand. 
You're an artist, man.
Your job is to break through barriers. Not accept blame and bow and say: "Thank you, I'm a loser, I'll go away now." 

You still want to be great? 

(and don't think you have to be great to prove anything to me, or to them, or even yourself -- just for the thing of it, for the doing of it). 

Then have the courage to fail big and stick around. Make them wonder why you're still smiling. That's true greatness to me.

But don't listen to me, I'm just [Gigi].  Your "greatness" is not why I'm here.  

I am.  
You are. 
That's all it is.  

That's the miracle.
