About this Quote
This quote by Ludwig Wittgenstein suggests that despite advances in innovation and scientific advancements, less people have a deep understanding and gratitude for the arts, such as music. The focus on enhancing technical aspects might come at the cost of the imaginative and artistic aspects involved in developing and performing music. Wittgenstein seems to lament this loss of understanding and gratitude for the arts.
"The opportunity to create a small world between two pieces of cardboard, where time exists yet stands still, where people talk and I tell them what to say, is exciting and rewarding"
