Music Is Edifying, For From Time To Time It Sets The Soul In Operation.

People Who Aren't Artists Often Feel That Artists Are Inspired. But If You Work At Your Art You Don't Have Time To Be Inspired.

Percussion Music Is Revolution. Sound And Rhythm Have Too Long Been Submissive To The Restrictions Of Nineteenth Century Music. Today We Are Fighting For Their Emancipation. Tomorrow, With Electronic Music In Our Ears, We Will Hear Freedom. At The Present Stage Of Revolution, A Healthy Lawlessness Is Warranted. Experiment Must Necessarily Be Carried On By Hitting Anything-tin Pans, Rice Bowls, Iron Pipes-anything We Can Lay Our Hands On. Not Only Hitting, But Rubbing, Scraping, Making Sound In Every Possible Way...what We Can't Do Ourselves Will Be Done By Machines Which We Will Invent.

The Purpose Of Music Is To Sober And Quiet The Mind, Thus Making It Susceptible To Divine Influences.
