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."

"You can't expect to be happy if you're surrounded by mess."

"Health and happiness - these are true wealth"

"How can you live like this? It's like a pigsty!"

"You're going to get sick living like this."
