Nothing is a waste that makes a memory.

Minor artists borrow, great ones steal.

It is never right to play ragtime fast.

My dear hands. Farewell, my poor hands.

I really do not aim at any originality.

Today it's not culture; it's box office.

Extreme complication is contrary to art.

Music is in the space between the notes.

Text first, rhythm second, melody third.

Music is the tonal reflection of beauty.

Sing sweet, but put a little dirt in it.

Gray skies are just clouds passing over.

The present day composer refuses to die.

I liked the bit about quarter to eleven.

Always ask for advice but never take it.

Emotions are the basics of any art form!

The best way to express rhythm is music.

Where the eye divides, the ear connects.

Forget regret, or life is yours to miss.

I exist in the world and live in my art.

I distrust anything that you don't hear.

I've seldom become nostalgic or settled.

I think the worst thing is stereotyping.

I write music with an exclamation point!

I believe in God, Mozart, and Beethoven.

There are no more geniuses, only critics.

Competitions are for horses, not artists.

I'll live a lush life in some small dive.

It's weird how people hate getting older.

I wrote music as soon as I knew notation.

In the end it doesn't matter what you do.

Music and love are the wings of the soul.

No one ever erected a statue of a critic.

The most stupendous miracle in all music.

Great leaders make people feel important.

Music is a means of rapid transportation.

We need not destroy the past. It is gone.

I'm my own most merciless critic onstage.

It's June in January because I'm in love.

Sebastian, en Español, is a bad ass name.

My kid gets me out of bed in the morning.

Love demands all, and has a right to all.

Any creator owes a debt to past creation.

Anyone and everyone can and will succeed.

I receive more fan mail from the females.

...music is the living God in our bosoms.

The man i'll never be, Who remembers him?

I was raised to be charming, not sincere.

I try to tell a story musically in a song.

What moments divine , what rapture serene.
