It's cool to have instruments lying around because they give you different ideas.

Ideas won't keep; something must be done about them.

You don't have to have a great art idea - just get to work and something will happen. So that's pretty much my modus operandi and pretty much my principal position, such as it is.

The value of a good idea is in using it.

A working artist is a playing artist.

Here's the truth you have to wrestle with: the reason that art (writing, engaging, leading, all of it) is valuable is precisely why I can't tell you how to do it.

An idea isn't worth much until a man is found who has the energy and ability to make it work.

You don't know what inspires you. You like to think you know what inspires you, but in the final analysis I don't think you really do. It's great to look at a blank sheet of paper, you know, and walk up to an instrument and not know what's gonna happen. It's the most challenging thing I do.

Ideas are easy. It's the execution of ideas that really separates the sheep from the goats.

If you don't execute your ideas, they die.
