1. I wish I could play the piano the way I want to.
2. I wish that everyone was born with innate understanding of all art forms.
3. Love throughout the world, individual to individual."
--Oscar Peterson's three wishes, as told to Pannonica de Koenigswarter, from Three Wishes: An Intimate Look at Jazz Greats.
