Wherever you are - be all there.
Always desire to learn something useful.
Do not weep do not wax indignant. Understand.
Expect problems and eat them for breakfast.
The dog that trots about finds a bone.
You never know what motivates you.
Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
It's always too early to quit.
Never complain and never explain.
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.
