I said that every Discipline has its corresponding freedom. What freedom corresponds to submission? It is the ability to lay down the terrible burden of always needing to get our own way.

We already have tamed our physical environment. And are we happy with all this tameness? Are you? — Jeanette Winterson

I play more rhythmically than I do a lot of notes. — Bobby Keys
