The so called quote by Armstrong has really become corrupted in this
thread.
Wrong man-wrong question.
The origin is attributed to Fats Waller who when asked 'what is
rythmn' replied 'man if you have to ask you aint got it'
There is a Waller compilation entitled 'If you have to ask.........'
This quote has been doing the rounds for decades and you can bet
your life it is entirely apocryphal,either he never said it or he
said something related which has been moulded into this glib maxim
over the years,
