Indeterminacy 170



I went to hear Krishnamurti speak.
He was
lecturing on how to hear
a lecture.
He said,
“You must pay
full attention to what is being
said and you can’t do
that if you take notes.”
The
lady on my right was taking
notes.
The man on
her right nudged her and
said, “Don’t you
hear what he’s saying?
You’re not
supposed to take notes.”
She then
read what she had written
and said,
“That’s right.
I have it written down
right here in my notes.”

- John Cage
