Sonny Rollins, quoted in 'Jazz Legend Sonny Rollins on Retiring His Sax, His Legacy, and the Secret to Life', by David Marchese, Vulture
You know, I listen to the radio a lot and there’s a guy that comes on and says, “Have a good day today and enjoy.” I hate the word “enjoy.” Because to me life is not about enjoyment or, in other words, getting for yourself. That’s not why we’re here. The reason of life, to me, is all about giving. Giving is what gives me happiness. Making somebody else happy is the greatest thing you can do.
