One Thing I Like About Jazz Is

I Have To Care And I Have To Be Honest And Have The Courage To Be Vulnerable. If That Happens, Then That's The Best I Can Do. To Just Be A Puppet For The Audience Is Not Very Courageous. Just To Do Whatever They Say They Want - Because A Lot Of Times People Will Hear Something New That They Hadn't Heard Before And Get Turned On By A New Experience And Will Want To Hear More Of That.

We Need To Put Into Practice The Idea Of Embracing Other Cultures. We Need To Be Shaping The Kind Of World We Want To Live In Instead Of Waiting For Someone Else Or Some Other Entities To Do It For Us.

People Always Want To Protect What's Really Going On Inside. They Want To Kind Of Make Visible Something That Looks More Pleasant Than What May Be Happening Inside Of Themselves.

I Spent Five Years, At Least, Working With Miles. Together, We Recorded Esp, Nefertiti, Sorcerer -- And I Can Tell You; Each Of These Albums Instantly Became Jazz Classics. Hey, We Had Wayne Shorter Playing Tenor Sax, Ron [carter] On Bass, Tony Williams Played Drums. That Was Great Band We Had.

I Think Risk-taking Is A Great Adventure. And Life Should Be Full Of Adventures.
