I always liked:
"The 'William Shatner School of Acting' . . . now I wonder why that's on the broom closet door . . . "
I guess that these would be more useful:
"Play by ear, not by feel."
"Your brain is just a fancy tape recorder that allows you to imitate others."
"Tell a little story to your audience."
The tuba in your head is the one that should dominate; the one in your hands is merely an aural reflection of what is or is not already in your head as you play."
