“Every time we have the opportunity to sit down and practice, . . . take three seconds only. Three seconds. . . . Look up and say, “Thank God.” . . . Because you’re so grateful, you’re so glad, that instead of doing something else you’re about to start practicing, which you have to take as a gift from God, because you don’t have the necessity to be breaking stones in the mine, or driving a truck from Oklahoma to Key West, or something like that. You’re sitting down with your beloved instrument—practicing!”
