Ornette Coleman
"Jazz is the only music in which the same note can be played night after night but differently each time."

Music

Quote_1.png
Ornette Coleman
"That's what I was trying to say when we were talking about sound. I think that every person, whether they play music or don't play music, has a sound - their own sound, that thing that you're talking about."

Music

Ornette Coleman
"I mean, if you decided to go out today and get you an instrument and do whatever it is that you do, no one can tell you how you're going to do it but when you do it."

Today

Quote_1.png
Ornette Coleman
"You don't have to worry about being a number one, number two, or number three. Numbers don't have anything to do with placement. Numbers only have something to do with repetition."

Being

Quote_1.png
Ornette Coleman
"It seems to me that in the western world, culture has something to do with appearance. A person that's out creating good stuff has got to appreciate someone when they take the time to have an appearance that goes with what they're doing."

Time

Quote_1.png
Ornette Coleman
"That's why I haven't been so anxious. But now, lots of people write and say, 'I want to find out what you're doing.' So I know that this book will enlighten them."

People

Quote_1.png
Ornette Coleman
"I think that those elements - light and sound - are beyond democratic. They're into the creative part of life."

Life

Quote_1.png
Ornette Coleman
"It just makes that person feel that what his work is is going to be more valid. But who wants to see a guy standing in front, looking like a bum, doing something that a bums don't do? This don't make sense."

Work

Quote_1.png
Ornette Coleman
"I asked my mother could I have an instrument. She said, 'Well if you go out and save your money.' So I went and got - I made me a shine box. I went out and started shining shoes, and I'd bring whatever I made."

Money

Quote_1.png
Ornette Coleman
"Even when you write it, someone's got to play it. So if you can play it and bypass all the rest of the things, you're still doing as great as someone that has spent forty years trying to find out how to do that. I'm really pro-human beings, pro-expression of everything."
