"When I hear what we call ‘music,’ it seems to me that someone is talking.  And talking about his feelings, or about his ideas of relationships.  But when I hear traffic, the sound of traffic — here on Sixth Avenue, for instance — I don’t have the feeling that anyone is talking.  I have the feeling that sound is acting.  And I love the activity of sound I don’t need sound to talk to me."

-- John Cage
