History has it that Andrea Verrocchio resolved never to touch the brush again because his pupil had far surpassed him. Later reports consider this a great exaggeration.
Great art inspires great art. Without the greats, art would never grow to new levels of creativity. Rather than quitting with a feeling that we can never be one of the greats, allow the greats to inspire us beyond ourselves, but never to defeat us.
