I'm not a minister, I'm not a philosopher, I'm not a politician, I'm in another category.
From Sun Ra
Music is a language, you see, a universal language.
And then when I went to Chicago, that's when I had these outer space experiences and went to the other planets.
I'm playing dark history. It's beyond black. I'm dealing with the dark things of the cosmos.
People have set that up as a standard, not to recognize a prophet in his own country.
What I'm dealing with is so vast and great that it can't be called the truth. It's above the truth.
Today's symphonic music is sponsored by the upper structures of society.
The world is in such a bad condition that if they don't find what you call a redeemer, every man, woman and child on this planet will be eliminated.
But recently I began to feel that maybe I wouldn't be able to do what I want to do and need to do with American musicians, who are imprisoned behind these bars; music's got these bars and measures you know.
A prophet is not without honor except in his own country among his own people.
