Famous quotes by Herbie Hancock:

"See, there were certain rules I'd always used, and people like Trane, they would break those rules."

"The music becomes something that is its own entity."

"When I was coming up, I practiced all the time because I thought if I didn't I couldn't do my best."

"Without wisdom, the future has no meaning, no valuable purpose."

"I try to practice with my life."

"But I have to be careful not to let the world dazzle me so much that I forget that I'm a husband and a father."

"I think there's a great beauty to having problems. That's one of the ways we learn."

"I'm always interested in looking forward toward the future. Carving out new ways of looking at things."

"I've been a religious, spiritual person for a long time."

"It is people's hearts that move the age."

"Jazz is about being in the moment."

"Nobody told me I was a child prodigy."

"Creativity shouldn't be following radio; it should be the other way around."

"Being a musician is what I do, but it's not what I am."

"I think I was supposed to play jazz."

"But, the truth is that everyone is somebody already."

"You can practice to learn a technique, but I'm more interested in conceiving of something in the moment."

"You would not exist if you did not have something to bring to the table of life."

"Music is the tool to express life - and all that makes a difference."

"I feel a lot more secure about the directions I take, than I might have, had I not practiced Buddhism."
