In the mental calmness of a spiritual life, I have found that the answers to the whys in our lives are able to come to you. In my music I find the same thing.
Being involved in the well-being and advancement of one's own community is a most natural thing to do.
I do read music, but I prefer playing from the heart.
God will give you no more than you can handle.
I wanted an electric train for Christmas but I got the saxophone instead.
As a horn player, the greatest compliment one can get is when a person comes to you and says, 'I heard this saxophone on the radio the other day and I knew it was you. I don't know the song, but I know it was you on sax.'
