Damn The Rules, It's The Feeling That

There Is Never Any End... There Are Always New Sounds To Imagine; New Feelings To Get At. And Always, There Is The Need To Keep Purifying These Feelings And Sounds So That We Can Really See What We've Discovered In Its Pure State.

Working With Monk Brought Me Close To A Musical Architect Of The Highest Order. I Felt I Learned From Him In Every Way--through The Senses, Theoretically, Technically. I Would Talk To Monk About Musical Problems, And He Would Sit At The Piano And Show Me The Answers Just By Playing Them. I Could Watch Him Play And Find Out The Things I Wanted To Know. Also, I Could See A Lot Of Things That I Didn't Know About At All.

All A Musician Can Do Is To Get Closer To The Source.

The First Time I Heard Bird Play, It Hit Me Right Between The Eyes.

I Want To Be The Force Which Is Truly For Good.
