That's a great collection of quotes!!! It's so nice to go back and read each one of them...Truly appreciate your efforts...
I feel this one quote needs a special mention here - Everything depends on your attitude.<http://whenrahmanspeaks.tumblr.com/post/352390363/everything-depends-on-your-attitude-if-you-treat>If you treat a jingle composition as joke, it is going to sound like one. But if you take it seriously and work on it, concentrating on every second of the 60 seconds, it is going to last. I take the same attitude when composing a song. I concentrate on each section of the song. It can be a burden, but it also brings joy when people notice the little surprises in each song. They may hear it 10 times over and yet discover new things in it.
