The calendar and the mirror - they're bastards.
Does anyone remember laughter?

I owe everything to the musicians I work with.
I treat everywhere as being a center from which I can enjoy the surroundings.
Don't be hard on yourself. And take as many chances, risks, as you can.

I can't regret until the end. And I won't regret then, either.
Finding another way to do what I know I can do pretty well. A way that stimulates me. I'm always on some sort of learning curve. If I can continually be surprised then I'm alert.

Theatres are built because they were the boards for entertainment.
