Some Stances Are Just Conducive To Swinging.

My Schedule Is Always Tight. But I Like To Have The Pressure Of Having To Finish Doing Something; It Gives Me An Added Edge.

I Love Gustavo Dudamel And I Love What He Does For Classical Music, And I Love What He Comes Out Of, El Sistema And The Old Man Abreu. When We Were In Venezuela, I Had The Chance To Go To His Building. He Had, Like, Five Or Six Orchestras Playing Of Kids From The Hood Playing, Like, Mahler's Third Symphony And Shostakovich Fifth And Beethoven. Man, It's Unbelievable. I Mean, They Could Play.

Walt Whitman's "leaves Of Grass" Is Still In Print. They're Debating Right Now Over Mark Twain. He's Still Available. Winslow Homer Can Still Be Seen. Our Arts Are - They're There. We Got To Go Get Them And Understand That This Is An Important Legacy For Our Country.

I Wanted To Make Somebody Feel Like Coltrane Made Me Feel, Listening To It.

Thank The Good Lord For A Job.
