Writing Player Intuition

More From Terry Riley

Steve jobs has a saying that a players hire a players; b players hire c players; and c players hire d players. it doesn't take long to get to z players. this trickle-down effect causes bozo explosions in companies.

Coming back to america was, for me, much more of a culture shock than going to india. the people in the indian countryside don't use their intellect like we do, they use their intuition instead, and their intuition is far more developed than in the rest of the world. intuition is a very powerful thing, more powerful than intellect in my opinion. that's had a big impact on my work.

Good people hire people better than themselves. so a players hire a+ players. but others hire below their skills to make themselves look good. so b players hire c players. c players hire d players, etc.

Dear god," she prayed, "let me be something every minute of every hour of my life. let me be gay; let me be sad. let me be cold; let me be warm. let me be hungry...have too much to eat. let me be ragged or well dressed. let me be sincere - be deceitful. let me be truthful; let me be a liar. let me be honorable and let me sin. only let me be something every blessed minute. and when i sleep, let me dream all the time so that not one little piece of living is ever lost.

"intuition" is one of those good words that has gotten a bad rap. for some reason, intuition has become a "soft" notion. garbage! intuition is the new physics. it's an einsteinian, seven-sense, practical way to make tough decisions. bottom line, circa 2001 to 2010: the crazier the times are, the more important it is for leaders to develop and to trust their intuition.

The beauty of string theory is the metaphor kind of really comes very close to the reality. the strings of string theory are vibrating the particles, vibrating the forces of nature into existence, those vibrations are sort of like musical notes. so string theory, if it's correct, would be playing out the score of the universe.

When you realize you're alive, you can live life!

Astonishment is the proper response to reality.

I think it's science and physics are just starting to learn from all these experiments. these experiments have been carried out hundreds and hundreds of times in all sorts of ways that no physicist really questions the end point. i think that these experiments are very clearly telling us that consciousness is limitless and the ultimate reality.

Thus the man who is responsive to artistic stimuli reacts to the reality of dreams as does the philosopher to the reality of existence; he observes closely, and he enjoys his observation: for it is out of these images that he interprets life, out of these processes that he trains himself for life.
