“In Seattle in October 2002, some music students had a brief Q&A with Wayne and his quartet. One student ingenuously asked him where he likes to play most: in auditoriums or clubs, in America or abroad? “It doesn’t make any difference where we play,” Wayne replied. “If you get fooled by those things, you’ll have things controlled by your environment. You’ll end up running away from your husband, trying to go to another place. And if you think you can ever really get to another place, you should know there’s a little cat sitting on your suitcase swinging his tail, who’s already got your trip planned out, and that cat’s name is Karma.”
Michelle Mercer, Footprints: The Life and Work of Wayne Shorter
“Genius to me means a lot of struggle. When you’re out of reach, out of the many cages of interpretation of what genius is, when you’re out of those cages, that genius takes on a terrific struggle.”
Michelle Mercer, Footprints: The Life and Work of Wayne Shorter
