“I want to take people away from the ugliness and sadness around us eve...” — Charlie Haden Quote

“I want to take people away from the ugliness and sadness around us every day and bring beautiful, deep music to as many people as I can.”

“I don't sing now, because I had polio when I was 15, bulbar polio. This was when the epidemic was happening. And I was lucky that it didn't affect my lungs or my legs. It went to my face and kind of paralyzed my vocal chords, and I wasn't able to sing. And they said I was very lucky that I would get over it, which I did.”

“James Cotton is a real blues guy, and he played with Muddy Waters, and it surprised me that they would want me to make a record with them, that he called me to do this record. I'd never done anything like that before. But I love blues, so I was very happy.”

“My fandom for 'Chucky' runs very, very deep - I have like, three Chucky dolls in my home.”

“'Superman/Wonder Woman,' people expected, I guess, a lot of romance, or maybe something that wasn't emotionally deep. Who knows?”

“RZA's a deep thinker.”
