Jack Lemmon

Arthur Peacocke

Words are the children of reason and, therefore, can't explain it. They really can't translate feeling because they're not part of it. That's why it bugs me when people try to analyze jazz as an intellectual theorem. It's not. It's feeling.
Bill Evans

Mort Kondracke

Ray Manzarek
