“Now, you can just get a laptop, get some software, put a microphone on it and make a record. You have to know how to do it. It does help if you've had 35 or 40 years of experience in the studio.

“On one level, nothing's really changed in my life. I still drive my daughter in the car pool on Monday.

“To reach beyond what you are you must ignore the rules and fashions of the day.

“Every civilized human being, whatever his conscious development, is still an archaic man at the deeper levels of his psyche.

“I remember when I got the part in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Jane Russell - she was the brunette in it and I was the blonde. She got $200,000 for it, and I got my $500 a week, but that to me was, you know, considerable. She, by the way, was quite wonderful to me. The only thing was I couldn't get a dressing room. Finally, I really got to this kind of level and I said, "Look, after all, I am the blonde, and it is Gentlemen Prefer Blondes!" Because still they always kept saying, "Remember, you're not a star."

“A teacher who can show good, or indeed astounding results while he is teaching, is still not on that account a good teacher, for it may be that, while his pupils are under his immediate influence, he raises them to a level which is not natural to them, without developing their own capacities for work at this level, so that they immediately decline again once the teacher leaves the schoolroom.” MayStillsShowsNaturalLevelsResultsTeacherInfluenceTeachingCapacityAccountsRaisesDevelopingDeclinePupilsGood Teacher Author:Ludwig Wittgenstein
