"This book covers Duke Ellington's 50-year career. Ellington's a man who was able to follow his vision. I get inspiration from that in terms of how I want to run my life and my business. I was at Microsoft for about eight years and decided I wanted to follow something I was passionate about -- music. I remember reading this book and saying, 'This is what I want to do with my life.'" - Anthony T. Laudico November 1998
