Ensemble Studio Quotes & Sayings

When I first came to New York I was a dancer, and a French record label offered me a recording contract and I had to go to Paris to do it.

Human history, like all great movements, was cyclical, and returned to the point of beginning. The idea of indefinite progress in a right line was a chimera of the imagination, with no analogue in nature. The parabola of a comet was perhaps a yet better illustration of the career of humanity.
