Billy Strayhorn Was My Right

There Is No Art Without Intention.

I Began By Tinkering Around With Some Old Tunes I Knew. Then, Just To Try Something Different, I Set To Putting Some Music To The Rhythm That I Used In Jerking Ice-cream Sodas At The Poodle Dog. I Fooled Around With The Tune More And More Until At Last, Lo And Behold, I Had Completed My First Piece Of Finished Music.

Art Is Dangerous. It Is One Of The Attractions: When It Ceases To Be Dangerous, You Don't Want It.

You Have To Stop Listening In Categories. The Music Is Either Good Or It's Bad.

A Musical Profit Outweighs A Financial Loss.
