Famous quotes by Philip Glass:

"European musicians didn't learn popular music, whereas in America we did, ... So you played in bands, you played in orchestras, you played everything. The high-art/low-art idea, that was a very European idea and not much appreciated in America. People like Cole Porter and Gershwin were considered very important composers."

"There were audiences for the first time in living memory. People were discussing modern music. Maybe they liked it and maybe they didn't, but the question of what we were doing suddenly became an urgent one."

"And then I went back to New York and found other people doing it. A handful of people."

"[This was the future, even if hardly anyone wanted to hear it. But, they were told, they shouldn't worry about that.] Acceptance would not come right away, but the history of music was going down this road and you either got on the train or you didn't, ... And if you didn't get on the train, you would be left behind."

"I just thought it was very interesting, ... How do you write a 30-second piece? Everything is extremely compressed."

"The message in that for me,"

"Night Stalker."

"After Lewis and Clark"

"What came to me as a revelation was the use of rhythm in developing an overall structure in music."

"I travel the world, and I'm happy to say that America is still the great melting pot - maybe a chunky stew rather than a melting pot at this point, but you know what I mean."

"Traditions are imploding and exploding everywhere - everything is coming together, for better or worse, and we can no longer pretend we're all living in different worlds because we're on different continents."
