His greatest gift to humanity is his music—all of which is available on his website. He gave it to us by putting it all in the public domain.

Gawd, this guy was the definition of genius. Modest, good, no GREAT-humored, slyly underplaying his lyrical and piano plying talents like it's no big deal. Then, chucking it when he was done to go teach mathematics at Harvard and MIT, as one does.

I never heard Teeny Tiny before. I wonder what else I've missed.

His comment on Time Magazine is a classic, and right on the mark.

I love that in this interview even back then he loved spreading rumors about himself, such as how he got supposedly 'thrown out' of Harvard, or even around the 90's where I heard he was spreading rumors that he had passed. I wonder if it was to give himself a mist of uncertainty and mystery surrounding him to others, or just to keep his privacy? I guess we will never know...
