Mary Lou Williams Quotes

Quite a few musicians came to our house. And my ma took me to hear many more, hoping to encourage in me a love of music. But she wouldnt consent to my having music lessons, for she feared I might end up as she had done - unable to play except from paper Picture Quote #1

If you work on your talent, the plans will fall in automatically Picture Quote #1
It’s not what you play, it’s how you play it Picture Quote #1
Offers for me to play dances, society parties, even churches, were now coming in regularly. For most dates I was paid the sum of one dollar per hour, and they always tipped me at the end of the night Picture Quote #1
