Louis Armstrong

If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn.

I love to play, and I love to make people happy.

I don't have any regrets. I've had a wonderful life.

A lot of people think that jazz is just a bunch of noise. But it ain't. It's music.

The memory of things gone is important to a jazz musician.

I don't like to be called a jazz musician. I'm a musician.

I never tried to be anything but myself.

I believe in the power of music to bring people together.

I don't need no fancy words to tell you what I feel. I just play my horn.

I'm just a simple man who loves to play music.

I never get tired of playing. I could play all day and all night.

Music is the food of love, and I'm a hungry man.

I don't think about yesterday or tomorrow. I just think about today.

I'm just happy to be alive and playing my horn.

The older I get, the better I play.

I don't believe in competition. I believe in cooperation.

I just want to leave something behind that people will remember.

I'm not a politician. I'm a musician.

I love all kinds of music, as long as it's good.

I'm not a religious man, but I believe in God.
