Jazz Music Is The Power Of Now.

So When We Spend All Of Our Time Trying To Separate That Which Is Already Joined, It's A Waste Of Time.

My Older Brother And Myself Always Played Together In Bands, But We Never Knew We Would Be Professional Musicians.

You Don't Try To Duplicate Certain Things That Other Cats Do, Because You Could Never Do It As Well As They Do. Nobody Can Get On That Tenor Saxophone And Play Like Trane, Because He's The Only One Who Can Spell Out Chords And Sound Good When He Does It.

I Believed In Studying Just Because I Knew Education Was A Privilege. It Was The Discipline Of Study, To Get Into The Habit Of Doing Something That You Don't Want To Do.

You Can Reach A Situation Where Things Of Intelligence And Refinement And Culture Can Be Considered Elite, And Things That Are Crass And Ignorant Can Be Considered To Be Real And Of The People. And When You Begin To Have The Mass Of Populus Striving For Something That's Not Worth Striving For, Then Tremendous Amounts Of Energy Go Into...the Maintenance Of That Which Is Worthless.
