Two quotes from Frank Zappa (b. 1940-12-21, d. 1993-12-04), a statue of whom is to be unveiled and dedicated today in Baltimore:

(After being asked how he'd like to be remembered, in a television interview) "I don't give a fuck if they remember me at all." -- Frank Zappa, 1983-07-01

"A composer is a guy who goes around forcing his will on unsuspecting air molecules, often with the assistance of unsuspecting musicians." -- from The Real Frank Zappa Book by Frank Zappa with Peter Occhiogrosso, 1989

[Zappa may not have cared whether he'd be remembered, but a great many fans of his work certainly care to remember him. I need to get around to getting somebody to rip my Zappa LPs to MP3 or getting a turntable working, so I can listen to the albums I've got again.]
