There Are No Wrong Notes In Jazz:

I Was Minding My Own Business When Something Says To Me, "you Ought To Blow Trumpet." I Have Just Been Trying Ever Since.

I've Always Told The Musicians In My Band To Play What They Know And Then Play Above That. Because Then Anything Can Happen, And That's Where Great Art And Music Happens.

It's Like, How Did Columbus Discover America When The Indians Were Already Here? What Kind Of S-- Is That, But White People's S--?

As Long As I've Been Playing, They Never Say I Done Anything. They Always Say That Some White Guy Did It.

I Don't Wanna Talk About Teo [macero]. He's A Helluva Musician, A Brilliant Musician, But He's Just Not For Me, That's All. I Can Elaborate On It, But I Don't Want To Do That.
