The thing that makes Harold Arlen and Gershwin great… I would be sitting next to the piano with them and they’d put one tune after another in the basket. But when I sit with a hack and he plays a tune, he says “This is great!” The artist always wants a change. He feels there’s something better.

Yip Harburg to Jack O’Brien, on “Critic’s Circle”
WOR Radio, New York City, May 21, 1977
