Quincy Jones

“Imagine what a harmonious world it could be if every single person, both young and old, shared a little of what he is good at doing.”

“I tell young musicians to not just think about performing. Think about producing, think about creating the whole experience.”

“The promoter's job is to create an environment where magic can happen. You provide the stage, the sound, the lights, and then you get out of the way and let the artist do what they do.”

“Risk in the entertainment business isn't about betting big—it's about having the courage to be different when everyone else is copying.”

“The sound of a crowd is the most beautiful music ever recorded.”

“Entertainment is a reflection of who we are as a society. Live events are where we see ourselves most clearly.”
