I don't mind being classified as a jazz artist, but I do mind being restricted to being a jazz artist. My foundation has been in jazz, though I didn't really start out that way. I started in classical music, but my formative years were in jazz, and it makes a great foundation.

I like to be on the edge, on the cutting edge, or be into the unknown, into the territory where I have to depend on being in the moment and depending on my instincts.
Herbie Hancock
A jazz musician is not a jazz musician when he or she is eating dinner or when he or she is with his parents or spouse or neighbors. He's above all a human being . . . the true artform is being a human being.
Herbie Hancock
There are a lot of records coming out, in every field of music, not just jazz.
Herbie Hancock
It is people's hearts that move the age.
Herbie Hancock
The thing that we possess, that machines don't, is the ability to exhibit wisdom.
