“Jazz presumes that it would be nice if the four of us-simpatico dudes that we are-while playing this complicated song together, might somehow be free and autonomous as well. Tragically, this never quite works out. At best, we can only be free one or two at a time-while the other dudes hold onto the wire. Which is not to say that no one has tried to dispense with wires. Many have, and sometimes it works-but it doesn't feel like jazz when it does. The music simply drifts away into the stratosphere of formal dialectic, beyond our social concerns.”

“The General Order is always: ......To manoeuver in a body and on the attack. ......To maintain strict but not pettifogging discipline. ......To keep the troops constantly at the ready. ......To employ the utmost vigilance on sentry go. ......To use the bayonet on every possible occasion. And to follow up the enemy remorselessly until he is utterly destroyed.”
“Let us live so that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.”
