Miles Davis

I'll play with it first and tell you what it is later.

That was my gift -- having the ability to put certain guys together that would create a chemistry and then letting them go; letting them play what they knew, and above it.

I'm always thinking about creating. My future starts when I wake up every morning. Every day I find something creative to do with my life.

I'll play it first and tell you what it is later.

Bebop was about change, about evolution. It wasn't about standing still and becoming safe. If anybody wants to keep creating they have to be about change.

A legend is an old man with a cane known for what he used to do. I'm still doing it.
