Herbie Hancock

"Music happens to be an art form that transcends language."

"It's not the style that motivates me, as much as an attitude of openness that I have when I go into a project."

"I think there's a great beauty to having problems. That's one of the ways we learn."

"But I have to be careful not to let the world dazzle me so much that I forget that I'm a husband and a father."

"I'm always interested in looking forward toward the future. Carving out new ways of looking at things."

"While knowledge may provide useful point of reference, it cannot become a force to guide the future."
