Playing is my way of thinking, talking, communicating.

Every day I look forward to getting with my instruments, trying new things.

Gratitude is when memory is stored in the heart and not in the mind.

It's always Jazz. You can put a new dress on her, a new hat, but no matter what kind of clothes she's the same old broad.

All art is communication of the artists' ideas, sounds, thoughts; without that no one will support the artist.

I'm motivated. The spirit hits me and I just keep going and don't stop. The more I play, the more I can invent, the more ideas come to me.

Seemed to me that drumming was the best way to get close to God.
