Let your mind alone, and see what happens.

I never learned to verbalize an abstract musical concept. No thank you. The whole point of being a serious musician is to avoid verbalization whenever you can.

In Paris, you learn wit, in London you learn to crush your social rivals, and in Florence you learn poise.

I've never known a musician who regretted being one. Music itself is not going to let you down.

Whatever deceptions life may have in store for you, music itself is not going to let you down.

You explain how it went, and as far as you can figure out how it got that way.

Musicians own music because music owns them.
