“The Bible was very definitely written by men, and not superior men either; far from it! This is why so much of it can be shown to be historically and scientifically dead wrong about damned-near everything back-to-front.”

“Nota: 1960s, "Specific Objects," 1965, Context: A work needs only to be interesting. Most works finally have one quality. In earlier art the complexity was displayed and built the quality. In recent painting the complexity was in the format and the few main shapes, which had been made according to various interests and problems. A painting by Newman is finally no simpler than one by Cezanne. In the three-dimensional work the whole thing is made according to complex purposes, and these are not scattered but asserted by one form. It isn't necessary for a work to have a lot of things to look at, to compare, to analyze one by one, to contemplate. The thing as a whole, its quality as a whole, is what is interesting. The main things are alone and are more intense, clear and powerful. p. 77.

“Ain't it strange, when I appear you run for cover? | And, when I look into your eyes, what do I see? | Have our love dreams flown away from one another? | Darling, don't stop loving me. | No, I never meant to full your dreams with heartaches, | or to send your true love crashing to the floor. | But, sometimes, thing just work out real crazy. | Oh baby, don't you love me anymore? | Don't you love me? | Don't you love me anymore?

“[Riferito a Billie Holiday] Possiamo trovare nelle sue incisioni del periodo 1935-40 tutti i procedimenti per mezzo dei quali essa trasformava una melodia: l'accentazione di certe note, che faceva precedere da brevi silenzi che attiravano su di esse l'attenzione (Why was I born, I wished on the moon) l'affrancamento, in rapporto al tempo, della frase (I Can't get sterted) cominciata generalmente con un leggero ritardo su quello: un effetto da cui Billie Holiday ricavava un considerevole swing (Miss Brown to you); le improvvise opposizioni dei registri (Body and soul); o la combinazione di questi due ultimi effetti (Can't help lovin' thet man). Per tutta la durata di queste registrazioni, si resta colpiti dal modo in cui Billie Holiday "pensa" – o "sente"”

i suoi vocali; ella lo fa molto più alla maniera d'uno strumentista che a quella di una cantante, tanto che quando, in She's funny that way, ella segue Lester Young, sembra continuare il pensiero musicale di quest'ultimo. (da Romantique Billie Holiday, in Jazz Hot, ottobre 1959; citato in Jazz: La vicenda e i protagonisti della musica afro-americana)
Origine: La versione di She's funny that way a cui si fa riferimento è quella del 1937. Mentre tutti gli altri brani sono stati registrati con sotto il nome di Teddy Wilson.
