Quote by Louis Armstrong

Musicians don't retire they stop when there's no more music in them.

Musicians don't retire they stop when there's no more music

Summary

This quote suggests that musicians do not retire because of age or external factors, but rather, they stop creating music when they no longer feel the inspiration or passion within them. It reflects the idea that music is a deeply ingrained part of a musician's identity, and as long as they have something to express through their art, they will continue to pursue it. Retirement, in this context, seems to be more about the absence of creative energy rather than the desire to cease working.

Was it the act of giving birth that made you a mother? Did you lose that label when you relinquished your child? If people were measured by their deeds, on the one hand, I had a woman who had chosen to give me up; on the other, I had a woman who'd sat up with me at night when I was sick as a child, who'd cried with me over boyfriends, who'd clapped fiercely at my law school graduation. Which acts made you more of a mother?Both, I realized. Being a parent wasn't just about bearing a child. It was about bearing witness to its life.

Without the errors which are active in every psychical pleasure and displeasrue a humanity would never have come into existence--whose fundamental feeling is and remains that man is the free being in a world of unfreedom, the external miracle worker whether he does good or ill, the astonishing exception, the superbeast and almost-god, the meaning of creation which cannot be thought away, the solution of the cosmic riddle, the mighty ruler over nature and the despiser of it, the creature which calls its history world history!--Vanitas vanitatum homo.
