My audience has developed so that they come to listen and are quiet, Thus I can work in a limited volume range and explore all the subtleties that can happen, which is my favorite part of the music.

Music, of all the liberal arts, has the greatest influence over the passions, and it is that to which the legislator ought to give the greatest encouragement.

I encourage film students who are interested in cinematography to study sculpture, paintings, music, writing and other arts. Filmmaking consists of all the arts combined. Students are always asking me for advice, and I tell them that they have to be enthusiastic, because it's hard work. The only way to enjoy it is to be totally immersed. If you don't get involved on that level, it could be a very miserable job. I only have one regret about my career: I'm sorry that we are not making silent movies any more. That is the purest art form I can imagine.

Vilmos Zsigmond Cinematographer

My personal hobbies are reading, listening to music, and silence.

Edith Sitwell Poet

It's taken me all my life to learn what not to play.

Dizzy Gillespie Bandleader

Creativity and artistic endeavors have a mission that goes far beyond just making music for the sake of music.

Herbie Hancock Jazz Pianist
