What Do You Think Happens To A

I Admire Anyone Who Can Come Up With Something Original. But Not Originality Alone, Because There Can Be Originality In Stupidity, With No Musical Description Of Any Emotion Or Any Beauty The Man Has Seen, Or Any Kind Of Life He Has Lived.

I Was Always Doing Revolutionary Things, Things That Would Alert People, So They Would Stop Being So Subservient.

I Never Heard My Music Played The Way I Heard It In My Head.

Thelonius Monk Went Over To Bird And Bud Powell And Said, 'i Told You Guys To Act Crazy, But I Didn't Tell You To Fall In Love With The Act. You're Really Crazy Now.'

In My Music, I'm Trying To Play The Truth Of What I Am.
