• Jazz isn't dead yet. It's the underpinning of everything in this country. Whether it's a Broadway show, or fusion, or right on through classical music, if it's coming out of the U.S., it's not going to survive unless it's got some jazz influence.

  Dave Brubeck

• My work has been about making a record of my life that no one can revise. I photograph myself in times of trouble or change in order to find the ground to stand on in the change.

  Nan Goldin

• Vinyl, CDs or laptops, it doesn't matter - you should use whatever
  you're comfortable with. If you're on the dancefloor and there's
  good music coming out of the speakers, that should be enough. If
  you're standing there storing your chin going: 'This would sound
  better if it was on vinyl', yes it might do, but at the end of the
  day, people want to go to a party.

• The child is naturally meditative. He is a sort of samadhi; he's coming out of the womb of existence. His life river is yset absolutely fresh, just from the source. He knows the truth, but he does not know that he knows.... His knowledge is not yet aware. It is innocent. It is simply there, as a matter of fact. And he is not separate from his knowledge; he is his knowledge. He has not mind, he has simple being.

  Rajneesh
