Famous quotes by Ron Carter:
"Education has always served to increase my awareness. Teaching helps me better understand what it is that I do."
"I felt a responsibility to present a viable alternative to the popular electric sound."
"A good bassist determines the direction of any band."
"I am from the planet of elegance."
"I was the most responsible I guess,"
"My interests were also a little more honed than the other guys - black politics and all those groups that had a different view of politics than was in the newspapers."
"Hopefully we'll have enough to last through the night but we might run out."
"We never dreamed they would need our church for an emergency so far away, but we are glad we can help. If you look at the images on TV, I think everybody is moved to compassion."
"The kids did a great job; I'm real happy."
"We've got 1,000 homes that are going to be built near the Square. They're going to want quality entertainment and be able to walk to it."
