I'm playing to the sort of people who like the same records.

You can read all the textbooks and listen to all the records, but you have to play with musicians that are better than you.

I went out there to play my game for the fun of it and never based my career around records.

Besides, most of the books I like involve people I could never play in a million years.

When you make a record, you listen to it literally hundreds of times. When it's done and you can't do anything else, I never listen to my records.

I never played for records. If I had played for records, then I would have had many more runs against my name. If, by your performance, the team wins, then that is what is most gratifying.

I actually don't think that I'm gonna sell a lot of records.

When I make records, I never listen to stuff after it's done. Ever.

I don't live in books, but, boy, have books amplified my life.
