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.
