You Know Why I Quit Playing Ballads?

Somebody, My Daughter Or My Wife, Gave Me A Music Box For Christmas. It Plays "my Funny Valentine" On Celeste, You Know? So I Had Bobby [irving] Just Play "jean Pierre" With The Changes On Celeste.

With "we Are The World," I Can't Even Eat When I Watch That On Television. If I'm Eatin' Some Food, I Have To Put It Down. I Feel Very Strongly About That.

There Are No Wrong Notes In Jazz: Only Notes In The Wrong Places.

I've Always Told The Musicians In My Band To Play What They Know And Then Play Above That. Because Then Anything Can Happen, And That's Where Great Art And Music Happens.

If You Sacrifice Your Art Because Of Some Woman, Or Some Man, Or For Some Color, Or For Some Wealth, You Can't Be Trusted.
