Jazz Today, As Always In The Past,

There Is No Art When One Does Something Without Intention.

There Are Simply Two Kinds Of Music, Good Music And The Other Kind ... The Only Yardstick By Which The Result Should Be Judged Is Simply That Of How It Sounds. If It Sounds Good It's Successful; If It Doesn't It Has Failed.

I Never Had Much Interest In The Piano Until I Realized That Every Time I Played, A Girl Would Appear On The Piano Bench To My Left And Another To My Right.

Jazz Is A Good Barometer Of Freedom.

The Wise Musicians Are Those Who Play What They Can Master.
