Quote by John Cage

"I have nothing to say and I am saying it and that is poetry."

"There is no such thing as silence. Something is always happening that makes a sound."

"If something is boring after two minutes, try it for four minutes. If still boring, try it for eight, sixteen, thirty-two minutes. Eventually one discovers that it is not boring at all."

"The highest purpose is to have no purpose at all."

"Fear drives civilization. Without it, there is only chaos."

"Order through chaos. That's the only real answer."

"Politics and power corrupt when they're separated from purpose."

"The system isn't broken—it was built this way. We have to rebuild it."
