Never complain and never explain.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Only the educated are free.
You never know what motivates you.
What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
Be gentle to all and stern with yourself.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
Wherever you are - be all there.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Jazz is a very democratic musical form. It comes out of a communal experience. We take our respective instruments and collectively create a thing of beauty.
