More From Steve Lacy

I love jazz. so to me, there are two main types of jazz. there's dancing jazz, and then there's listening jazz. listening jazz is like thelonius monk or john coltrane, where it's a listening experience. so that's what i like; i like to make stuff that you listen to. it's not really meant to get you up; it's meant to get your mind focused. that's why you sit and listen to jazz. you dance to big band or whatever, but for the most part, you sit and listen to jazz. i think it comes from that aesthetic, trying to take that jazz listening experience and put it on hip-hop.
Thinking Dancing Listening
I would like a wine. the purpose of the wine is to get me drunk. a bad wine will get me as drunk as a good wine. i would like the good wine. and since the result is the same no matter which wine i drink, i'd like to pay the bad wine price.
Wine Drunk Purpose
I am not the kind of person that wants to enforce my wants, likes, desires, on everybody else. i have no desire that everybody like what i like. i have no desire everybody say what i want to hear said. i have no desire everybody stop whatever they're doing and listen to what i have to say. i have no desire that everybody agree. no, that's not true. i do wish everybody agreed, but i'm not gonna sit around and force that on people.
People Desire Wish
Day-colored wine, night-colored wine, wine with purple feet or wine with topaz blood, wine, starry child of earth.

Jazz is the greatest american art form and our greatest export. we don't pay attention to the youth of jazz, don't stoke the fires creatively for the youth coming up. i feel like jazz musicians became too much of purists - with donald byrd doing funk jazz in the '70s.
Art Fire Musician
I don't mind being classified as a jazz artist, but i do mind being restricted to being a jazz artist. my foundation has been in jazz, though i didn't really start out that way. i started in classical music, but my formative years were in jazz, and it makes a great foundation.

Similar Quotes
And i think it's because good cons are all based on the victim's need, and the successful con artist is the one, i guess, who can exploit that. i remember reading something about this, that one of the great traits of confidence tricksters is the level that they flatter their victim.
Reading Successful Artist
I learned early about the misery and dangers of life, and about the afterlife, about the external punishment which awaited the children of sin in hell.
Children Artist Punishment
Artists are most themselves when they are out of their minds, transcending the ego skirmishes of conceptual thought, and intuitively relinquishing control to the greater creator
Artist Ego Mind
I am selfish, but that's an attribute that all artists possess.
