The only way to know is to Live, Learn, and Grow.

If you assume you haven't learned anything yet, there's no reason your playing can't stay dynamic all your life.

It's good to learn from your mistakes. It's better to learn from other people's mistakes.

Learn Everything that is Good from Others, but bring it in, and in your own way absorb it; do not become others.

No one is ever really taught by another; each of us has to teach himself. The external teacher offers only the suggestion, which arouses the internal teacher, who helps us to understand things.

A teacher can never truly teach unless he is still learning himself. The teacher who has come to the end of his subject, who has no living traffic with his knowledge but merely repeats his lesson to his students, can only load their minds, he cannot quicken them.
