Text Quotes
I got a poster from Columbia Records, and there’s Miles Davis, Charlie Mingus, Ellington, Count Basie - everybody in that poster has died, I’m the only one left. And great players like Paul Desmond and Gerry Mulligan, it’s hard to believe they’re gone because we were all so close. But I believe in the future and the tradition will go on  (Miles Davis Quotes) Music is my only guide. I don’t care if people pigeonhole me. Miles Davis is my hero. He covered Cindy Lauper and Michael Jackson, and he didn’t give a hoot about what the purists said  (Miles Davis Quotes) Music gives me a lot of peace, either classic music with its structure or the spontaneity of Miles Davis. It brings the best in you  (Miles Davis Quotes) My own musical background is based in the blues, and in classical composition. I grew up listening to Muddy Waters, John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Beethoven and Bach  (Miles Davis Quotes) I am a leader, so leaders always get heat. They’re always going against the grain. Jimi Hendrix got heat; Bob Marley got heat; Miles Davis got heat. Every great artist got heat. Heat means you’re doing something right.  (Miles Davis Quotes) I’ve always told the musicians in my band to play what they know and then play above that. Because then anything can happen, and that’s where great art and music happens.  (Miles Davis Quotes) At least one day out of the year all musicans should just put their instruments down, and give thanks to Duke Ellington.  (Miles Davis Quotes) Dave [Holland] plays the way he wants to play.

You can’t tell him too much, else it might spoil his spirit, you know.  (Miles Davis Quotes) Bebop didn’t have the humanity of Duke Ellington. It didn’t have that recognizable thing. Bird and Diz were great, fantastic, challenging -- but that weren’t sweet.  (Miles Davis Quotes) People will go for anything they don’t understand if it’s got enough hype....  (Miles Davis Quotes) I really liked Wynton when I first met him. He’s still a nice young man, only confused.  (Miles Davis Quotes) Do not fear mistakes. There are none  (Miles Davis Quotes) Sometimes you have to play a long time to be able to play like yourself  (Miles Davis Quotes) Don't play what's there, play what's not there  (Miles Davis Quotes) For me, music and life are all about style  (Miles Davis Quotes) If you understood everything I say, you'd be me!  (Miles Davis Quotes) Knowledge is freedom and ignorance is slavery  (Miles Davis Quotes) Good music is good no matter what kind of music it is  (Miles Davis Quotes) Music is an addiction  (Miles Davis Quotes) It's not about standing still and becoming safe. If anybody wants to keep creating they have to be about change  (Miles Davis Quotes) I always listen to what I can leave out  (Miles Davis Quotes) If you're trying to be hip, be hip  (Miles Davis Quotes) Always look ahead, but never look back  (Miles Davis Quotes) To keep creating you have to be about change  (Miles Davis Quotes) I can tell whether a person can play just by the way he stands  (Miles Davis Quotes) You know why I quit playing ballads? Cause I love playing ballads  (Miles Davis Quotes) You should never be comfortable, man. Being comfortable fouled up a lot of musicians  (Miles Davis Quotes) Music is the framework around the silence  (Miles Davis Quotes) Music is a funny thing when you really come to think about it  (Miles Davis Quotes) My ego only needs a good rhythm section  (Miles Davis Quotes)
