“A gentleman is someone who can play the accordion, but doesnt.” “Oh, Im not a percussionist, I just like to hit things.” “They say that I have no hits and that Im difficult to work with. And they say that like its a bad thing.” “I worry about a lot of things, but I don’t worry about achievements. I worry primarily about whether there are nightclubs in Heaven.” “There’s nothing more embarrassing than a person who tries to guess what the great American public would like, makes a compromise for the first time, and falls flat on his face… I would rather be a failure on my own terms than a success on someone else’s. That’s a difficult statement to live up to, but then I’ve always believed that the way you affect your audience is more important than how many of them are there.” Tom Waits, born on this day in 1949
