Either you run the day or the day runs you.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Know or listen to those who know.
Well done is better than well said.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
It's always too early to quit.
Who seeks shall find.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
Certain kinds of speed, flow, intensity, density of attacks, density of interaction... Music that concentrates on those qualities is, I think, easier achieved by free improvisation between people sharing a common attitude, a common language.
