Miles Davis

Don't play what's there, play what's not there.

If you're not making mistakes, you're not trying hard enough.

I'm always thinking about new ways to play.

Do not fear mistakes. There are none.

I'm not trying to play a lot of notes. I'm trying to play the right notes.

A legend is an old man with a cane, not a young man in a suit.

I'll play it first and tell you what it is later.

The only thing that matters is the music.

I don't care what people think. I just play my music.

It's not about being clever. It's about being honest.

I don't listen to what other people are doing. I just do my own thing.

Music is my life, my passion, my everything.

I'm always searching for something new.

I don't believe in labels. I just believe in music.

You have to be a little crazy to be a musician.

I play what I feel.

It's all about the feeling, man.

I don't think about the past. I think about the future.

You have to be in the moment.

I'm always trying to push the boundaries.
