 Another point I made was that black American music was a new language, and I don't feel this was ever really acknowledged.

 Around 1967 I began backing away from dogmatic Leninism, not so much because I thought it was false, I just decided there was nothing utopian about it.

 At the same time, I was listening to black music, and I began to think that the best musicians were receiving the worst treatment. The people who were doing the greatest work were despised as lower class, with no dignity accorded to what they did.

 I'm actually a great fan of lucidity.

 I'm trying to assemble materials for a different mode of life.

 In classical oil painting, there seemed to be a radical turn to seeing things as the camera sees them, with that technological modification. I began to have a tremendous problem with all of this.
