The World Is No Longer A Romantic

I Can't Understand Why People Are Frightened Of New Ideas. I'm Frightened Of The Old Ones.

The Attitude I Take Is That Everyday Life Is More Interesting Than Forms Of Celebration, When We Become Aware Of It. That When Is When Our Intentions Go Down To Zero. Then Suddenly You Notice That The World Is Magical.

...we Make Our Lives By What We Love.

Let No One Imagine That In Owning A Recording He Has The Music. The Very Practice Of Music Is A Celebration That We Own Nothing.

It Was At Harvard Not Quite Forty Years Ago That I Went Into An Anechoic [totally Silent] Chamber Not Expecting In That Silent Room To Hear Two Sounds: One High, My Nervous System In Operation, One Low, My Blood In Circulation. The Reason I Did Not Expect To Hear Those Two Sounds Was That They Were Set Into Vibration Without Any Intention On My Part. That Experience Gave My Life Direction, The Exploration Of Nonintention. No One Else Was Doing That. I Would Do It For Us. I Did Not Know Immediately What I Was Doing, Nor, After All These Years, Have I Found Out Much. I Compose Music.
