Jazz changes and all. But I don't know the names of what it is I'm doing.

I was taught to think the next week or month or year will only get better than it is today. So I just keep waiting to see how great it will get!

Music really is a way to reach out and hold on to each other in a healthy way.

I hit rock bottom, but thank God my bottom wasn't death.

You see, we are here, as far as I can tell, to help each other - our brothers, our sisters, our friends, our enemies. That's to help each other, not hurt each other.

When I play from my mind I get in trouble.

It is the human things that make life good, the unexpected kindness, the friendly note, the bracing word, the neighbour's extra loaf of bread she leaves at our back door.
