"The latent abundance of your inner most resources matters less. What matter most is the impact you can make with your inner resources and the distinctive footprints you can leave with what is within you. The excuse not to dare is there for everybody.

Fire
"Well, I never really practiced because I never had the opportunity to practice."
Opportunity
"I think at one time every drummer wanted to play like Krupa or wanted to win a Gene Krupa drum contest. This is the big inspiration for drummers and naturally it has to be the same way for me."
Time
"They're simply following what was laid down in front and they play the same thing. So, there's no great challenge In being a classical drummer."

Influence
"So, to come In with a set routine it's something I've never believed in. It should depend on how you feel, because you play what you feel."
